Yes, it is another matter. A solid roller won't wipe the lobes down on your cam and make you have to rebuild the entire engine because it scattered metal throughout the oiling system.

I know Ernie, your solid roller dumped on you....but you were running crappy lifters.

It would be nice if an idle adjustment would fix the problem, but I would find another way around it if I could.
