Re: Defective lifters from Edelbrock
It's not in a stressful enough position to be a serious threat. But in general, a pit can have a sharp edge, and as the engine cycles in temperature, a crack can propagate through the metal. Eventually the lifter could crack. Not saying definitely would, just that it could. I wouldn't run it except in a vehicle that I didn't plan on keeping a long time.
