Default 406 Hydraulic to Solid Roller cam results

When I first had my 406 on the Dyno it made 545 rwhp. I had my old drag radials on the car for tuning. I replaced my drag radials and with the new drag radials on I put it back on the Dyno and it made 526 rwhp. The new tires were stickier and softer and wrinkled more during a pull . Both sets set at 25 psi.
My original cam was an old comp cam grind for a stroker.
247/255 624 /624 on 114LSA
The solid roller is a cam motion grind .
250/266 680/642 on 114LSA , .010 hot lash
The solid roller made around 20 rwhp peak than the Hydraulic and carried to 7400 before it started to fall off.

Very nice, I would say that was worth the effort for sure. The whole curve looks better. Car should go way faster, even with no other changes. Job well done👍👍👍

Thanks guys. We tried another degree of timing for Pro Stock John. It was just enough to get me over 550. It was worth almost 3 Hp! Where the hydraulic fell off I'm up 30-40 with the solid roller.
I'm planning on moving my shifts up to 7400.
