No they did not Frank. And with modern oil not having the lubricity it used to...as well as the metallurgical properties having changed in the lifters and cams, these EDM lifters are the way to go with a little added lubrication of the lobes.
Helps to keep from wiping a lobe off the cam during break in is my line of thinking.
