Setting lash every 750-1000 miles in not no maintenance. Just saying.

It's rpm dependent. A hydraulic cam is (in most cases) a 6000 rpm cam.
These cars require maintenance, plain and simple. Most guys buy them because they like to tinker. However, you'll prob only put 3000 miles on a car in a year, so a 1000 mile maintenance interval really isn't anything.
