I'd be worried that such a mod might lower your oil pressure. Maybe it
wouldn't be by much, but I'd be inclined to uprate the relief spring in your
oil pump (in the TR7, this takes you from 60 PSI to 80 PSI), at the same
time. In fact, the oil pressure upgrade alone should improve lubrication of
the rockers.
