also solids have a lash take up ramp that would cause the hydro lifter to not work properly , solid on hydro cam is fine if run very tight
Explain this please. A hydraulic lifter has preload. What is this "ramp" going to do ???
it will cause the seat timing, duration to be MUCH higher at the valve,.020 lash is gone from the solid, also a lot of solids have an inverted flank, the lobe drops a little just before the ramp, the hydro would start opening the valve very early compared to a solid lifter with the proper lash, I tried it many years ago on my 383 dart, ran like crap, no vacuum.
