Well, I will say this....if it were a drilled block, I would be a little more favorable toward a solid roller with pressure fed lifters. Most Cobras don't see enough miles to wear a high dollar set of pressure fed lifters out.
However, if the block isn't drilled, there aren't too many choices and a solid flat tappet was made for that scenario.
I have my solid flats made a little differently than most guys though. They are nitrided, I use tool steel lifters, and I have them ground with extra lobe taper.
