There are always argumets about these non kosher combinations. Some say; Hydraulic cam with solid lifters are OK. Some say; Solid Lifter Cam with hydraulics OK. It's really just not a proper combination. Remember you want thast engine to run for 100,000 miles. If you can accept 20K or less miles it doesn't matter which way you go. Build it right and you'll only need to build it once.
