what is you guys opinion if I rip off mopars 590 cam and have it ground in the form of a solid roller the specs 590/590lift 312/312duration 106 love separation?
Afraid of wearing out the lobes on a flat tappet? This could be the only real reason I'd consider going roller. One of the main reasons for a roller cam is that you can open and close the valve much faster, because of that roller. Try to do that on a solid and the edge of the lifter would dig into the cam lobe. I might not even bother to have one ground - not sure if its possible but maybe just run roller lifters on an actual 590 cam...
Op, call a cam grinder and have them grind a cam for your build, why run a roller with old tech on it?
just get a custom ground roller and it will outperform like you cant imagine...
ok I'll talk to a couple of company and see where I am at
the virtual dyno at comp cams is pretty good

Sorry to tell you this but it's not. It will only show you Comp cams profiles and even then they will be vanilla off the shelf profiles. Custom profiles are so cheap these days,you would be crazy not to take advantage of them.
