I believe Doc has used them on his race engine. Search for using roller rocker or something similar to see his pictures. I know he had to use an oil spray bar to keep them from burning up.

why, do they cause oiling problems for the top end?

They have been known to not oil the roller tip enough on the street, and that causes stem problems.

The Slant works against us when it comes to roller tip rocker arms. The tip (and the valve stem) are the high point so it is hard to get oil up to that spot.
As noted, I install an oiler into the valve cover and pour oil right on the tips.
