<VV> Original Lifters.... what's wrong with the replacement lifters?

[levair at aol.com]

The oil flow is intentionally restricted due to the push rod being 
above the rocker arm in Chevy V8s.
Also the adjustment range is maybe 1/10th of the  original Corvair 
lifter.

All this talk of resurfacing lifters.... begs the question to the OP 
(or anyone else):

What's wrong with the Sealed Power "disc valve" lifters ?
