I'm a big solid roller fan....

I think the situation here is that the cam is so large that the engine has no bottom end.....and a large hydraulic roller that will turn rpms requires some specialized parts to let it do that....IF the cylinder heads will support it as well.

Keep in mind that a 254-260° @ .050" solid roller cam would probably peak at 6800-7000. That's about where this engine would want to run if it could.
