I overhauled aircraft engines for 16 years. lifter face to cam were 
lubed with
break in lube and lifter were pre-oiled on engine pre-oil before live 
run.
I Never had lifter failure. If you have oil pressure a lifter will 
eventually
pump up. Be easy on the engine on a fresh overhaul. 
 Good luck-Stephen Till
