Dont think anything is to be gained by the added duration and closer lobe speration ??? [/quote

To compare duration numbers between hydraulic and solid lifter cams,the generally accepted rule is to add ten degrees to a hydraulic to have a comparable solid.
So you basically have the same exhaust duration,more intake duration.
I would expect the solid to pull much stronger above maybe 5500 rpm due to the nature of hydraulic lifters.
The larger intake lobe should raise the peaks a little,and the tighter lsa will build torque much better through the middle.
I would not expect huge gains,but they definitely should be there.

Thank you sir.This is kinda what i was thinking as well.Small gains here and there through the rpm range .A bit weaker out of the gate (with my convertor stall), but with a little extra lung capacity on the topend.Nothing to write home about for sure ,but a noticable gain .I will report back when i get the cam and lifters changed and have a new time slip in my paw .If it works it works ,if it dont it dont ...
