I'm not sure if I am going to go solid or hyd, I've already got the stuff for a solid setup. What compression would you go with? I'll build it here but will probably use the Mahle "W2W" spec'd pistons.

I've had no issues with Cometic gaskets. I just re-torqued the bolts 3-4 times before firing the motor (a day between each pass - they DID need it)

It will see some limited pump gas/street use . My thoughts are somewhere between 8.0:1 amd 8.75:1 CR and 20+psi at the track. I'm willing to try and lift the heads.

Phil,

I would go Jesel and solid roller. The stability in the valvetrain as well as strength in the lifters is going to give you more power up top.
