First stroker build – could use some expert advice

tried them also, still same result...this block is the problem, but had it up and running so went with a mechanical cam, non roller, and the MP lifters that have no oil band. Problem solved, but not what I wanted.

One fix for the exposed band is to have the cam ground with a smaller base circle.

For the motor brackets issue, weld a tab on a 318 mount.
