Since I'm only going to use my Cobra as a toy and not a daily driver, I opted for the solid roller cam. Comp Cams has some new solid roller lifters out that are pressure fed....supposedly they will last a long time.
What kind of rpm limits are we talking about? I really don't intend to use the north end of 6000. The hydralic rollers lifters are good for that, aren't they?

All thing considered, you can put together a pretty good argument that the 427 Cobra is the ultimate performance car, judged on any basis you want to name."
