Hi Dave i am going with a hydraulic piece i also like less maintenece and solid rollers are a better choice for higher rpm motors. In my car i am also running air and the room to set lash is really tight so it was my only real choice. In your car (very cool) are you running a small block or the big brother? The roller cams are a set up and foget vs the flat tappet fiasco that i and two other good friends have experieced.

496 (stroker big block)
A/C in the future too, and flat tappet was good for high-RPM/racing but mid-range torque is wht I'm after now, eh?
