Thanks Concobra. That's good information. It's always nice to hear from someone that has actually run the cam in question. Based on your feedback and similar feedback from someone else that was running a Crane hyd roller, I've pretty much ruled that cam out.

I'd consider going with a solid roller but when I built the motor I didn't tap the oil gallies that need to be blocked off to run solids. Taping the gallies without tearing down the motor would be a big no no since I wouldn't be able to clean out the resulting metal shavings. Anyone know of another way to block off the lifter gallies without having to thread the passage?
