I think some of you are missing a key point. Gi8avett didn't know what lashing valves were, so unless he/she wanted to learn these skills, 933 would be harder to care for. In addition, a solid cam typically (especially in a small block) means more aggressive cam. So, considerably more homework is needed to really tell which engine is more suitable. BTW, Gi8avett, solid or hydraulic cam/lifter doesn’t make the valves better or worse. There are a lot of factors involved, but if I was a betting man, I would go with the hydraulic cam (925) because of assumed better reliability and ease of maintenance.
