who is running MRL (BAM) Lifters without lifter bore sleeves

If you go back and view the photos of my block, and look closely, you can see that the bushings added have a taller height than stock.
I cannot even get the lifters in or out of the bores with the heads on because they are much taller.

The Comp retrofit hyd rollers are also long enough that you must remove the heads to install them, even in a factory stock lifter bore.
