This is catagorically false.I've had my solid falt tappet in the motor for 10 years now.No issues.So i run the valves once or twice a year,who gives a rats a$$?These are NOT maintenance free cars.

Something to look at other than the really important stuff like will your block even accept hydraulics, is the return on the dollar or bang for the buck.


What you will gain with roller anything over a solid flat-tappet ain't worth it.
