I have a Texas Speed Torquer V2 and would like to run Solid lifters with it (with the adjustable rockers that will be needed).

Is it possible to do this?? Or would I be wasting my time with this cam???

 

I don't know if I would do it. Usually cam profiles are different for solid lifters because they have lash clearance, and not preload. The initial opening will be softer so as not to beat up valvetrain parts. However, I don't know that the opening events on the Torquer are even aggressive enough to be detrimental, so I may be making a moot point.

 

Very bad idea. Solid roller cam lobes incorporate a gentle initial step to take up the valvetrain lash before they go into lift mode, hydraulic lobes don't. Your valvetrain will have a short, painful, noisy life.

 

Hyraulics take up some of the slack when the lobe ramps. I think the cam's life will be short lived with solids and the wrong cam. If your going solids change everything out at the same time with mating parts.
