Re: hydrolic or solid lifters
It goes a little deeper than that.
What rpms do you plan on shiftoing at, if its less than 7k, go hydro. Adjusting only takes less than an hour, so it all depends on what you are able to live with. Over 7k, solids only! Up to 7k with hydro is pushing it, but if the valve train is top quality, you should have no trouble, but it also depends on the cam profile.
