I'm on your side!

Just curious...why not a solid roller? You'd get the advantage of the increased opening/closing valve rates the rollers offer, plus the hi-rev advantages of solid lifters...sounds like win/win to me?

I like the sound of a good solid lifter, don't mind pulling the valve covers now and then to do the lash adjustments, either..."that sound" is just all part of what I think a good small-block should do!

Cheers!
