I guess it all depends on your situation as a whole. Generally solid cams make more high rpm power, but you need a intake/heads/exhuast that will support the increased RPms and airflow. IMO if you are not going for a max effort street/strip car stay with a hydrolic roller cam, solid cams require more frequent adjustment ans can cause an increase in wear.

Yes solids will make more power than hydrolic . They will also ware out a set of heads faster . they suck on a street engin .
