Dan,
I had a 390 HiPo that ran solids. My 69 Cobra with the 428 SCJ engine came with hydraulics that were rated up to 7,000 RPM, but in trying to keep up with the lousy gas we now have, I had the compression lowered and also changed the cam and changed over to solid lifters. All I gained was a loss of top end speed and the gas gets worse. I believe the 428 PI engines that Shelby used had solids but I just don't remember for sure. I have a book on them somewhere if I can find it.
