    cylinder head porting / what is this for ?

    Maybe if you were building a class race car where any small gain can help win a race but for a street car.... :nono: By defintion you can't keep them the same height and index them as you use different thickness washers to do the indexing.

    Oil pressure issue/and a battery issue..

    Yep my thoughts exactly and why I'd check the guage first considering you are having electrical gremlins.

    Oil pressure issue/and a battery issue..

    Install a mechanical gauge and verify that it is actually dropping pressure and it's NOT an electrical issue giving a false 0 on the gauge.

    Lifter Question...

    Could try heating the head and use an icecube in a rag to quench the bucket to shrink it. I had an "issue" with my shimless buckets after they were Cryo treated where they expanded on their open end so they had to be centreless ground back to size.

    Pull em and check them for roundness and damage as Geore suggested.

    Lifter Question...

    Yep if there's no evident damage like George is telling you to check for you may have to do the select fit thing on the buckets. If everything has been kept in order this "shoudn't" be an issue though so not sure what's going on here.
