Default Solid Lifter Question

Does anyone make dog bone solid lifters (the ones that work with the plastic tappet holder) and with needle bearing oiling? The only ones I have seen with bearing oiling are the link bar type.

Morel only makes a lifter with a tie bar. The 3 options are needle bearing, bushing, or the black Mamba which is axle and wheel with an oil wedge.

The mamba has the bushed wheel? Do you have an oil fed needle bearing?

The only reason I want the dog bone style is I can remove the lifter without taking the heads off, Lsx block. The link bar type is too tall and hits the heads before it's out of the lifter bore.
