solid roller setup Exactly how much louder is a solid roller setup than a hydraulic roller setup....(lifter noise. Will this give me the same amount of gains on a blower motor as it does N/A.
Re: solid roller setup TTT
I don't know, maybe someone else can comment.
With flat tappets solids make a fair amount more noise than hydrolic's and solids require adjustment and hydrolics don't.
If your even considering a solid roller, the car should be so mod'd a little more noise isn't even an issue. If the car is a daily driver or on the street a lot, the solid roller can add a fair amount of upkeep if you can't adjust the valve train yourself.

Re: solid roller setup A street solid roller( low lash .010")cam has very little valvetrain noise,I've some aggresive hydralic cams have more noise.If you have a built motor with forged pistons,they are louder than the cam.
A soild roller\blower setup will gain good power if they are matched correctly( blower tip speed vs engine RPM)
