    hydraulic vs solid

     



    i'm thinking of putting a solid flat cam in my 406sbc, but i just had a few questions about solid cams, is a solid camshaft worth anymore power over a hydrualic flat ? i know the hydraulics are getting very good and i had lot of success with them,but i'm hearing that solids are just better for power, if solids are better how come?. i don't care about adjusting lash, but how often do you have adjust the lash for street/strip engine? if anyone has experiences with solid cams, much help would be appreciated.
