If the lifter ground down like the one on my picture the failure is related to a soft lifter... Lifter issues popped up around 1990 due to Corporate cost cuts, then continued on. They wore out all of the excuses and finally most folks figured out the lifter manufactures (actually bottom line profits) were to blame. This was after Chevrolet had a slew of failures in the 80's.
IMO you could still be in a better situation than if you went with a HR set up.... When those go they can take the block out with them. So you still have a good block and you saved a bunch of dough over the HR set up.
Good luck with the next go around. Now is the time to improve on the cam choice if there were any short comings with the last cam.
