the thing about solid cams is the ramp speed that it use.....also most solid rollers have a tighter centerline making them undisirable for the street. when you combine ramp speed and tighter centerlines the engine will rev very quickly....this can not be be done in a hyd roller as it takes time for the lifter to fill up so to speak...and the spring in the lifter can't take the ramp speed as of yet
