Would this not defeat some or all of the advantage of running a proper matched solid cam and lifter set? I mean I have seen the difference in the ramp lengths of HR to SRs being as high as 17*. And as you know, the .008/.006 advertised spec is no where near when the valve actually closes. I understand that running solids on hydros might make them quieter because of the gentle ramps, but in this case the quiet is eating up valuable cylinder pressure. 8 degrees,half the difference, equates to roughly 12psi.
