You can get 6500 rpms out of a hydraulic roller set-up easily....You will not be staying at 7000 rpms very long, most likely once you hit that number, you'll be shifting...
I wouldn't hesitate to go with a hydraulic roller set-up instead of a solid cam set-up for your intended use....
Little to no maintence and easier on parts, also larger selections of cams to pick from.......

Just my 2 cents on the subject.....

I hear you loud and clear - I am committed to solid.
