Post Solid Roller again..

Ok, just wanted to see if you guys thought that I would still see the 10-12% gain in HP if I use a solid roller cam that has simular stats to my current cam. Below are the #'s.

-Solid roller comp cam- 242/248 585/586 w/1.5s 112lsa

-Hydro roller comp cam- 242/248 576/600 w/1.5's 113lsa

Also, if it matters I'm using 1.6 RRs

Thanks,
Jason

I don't foresee you gaining over 50hp by swapping cams like that. JMO.

I agree it seems strange, but everyone I talked to said that a solid roller will give you 10-12% more power(machine shop and Comp Cams).
