If you ask me i love the power and rpm you get with solid cam and lifters opposed to hydraulic and yes they make good high revs but also make good all around power, definately streetable no matter what rpm your at. Im with solid if you got the dough. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
