I have the 00-422 performance hydro Web camshaft in my 74. 2.0 along with Hydro lifters.
It's been the one part of the car, I've not been happy with, and lately they have been bleeding down fast (one week) and taking a while to quiet down. I just got off the phone with webcam and the nice woman said; that I COULD go back to solid lifters and rods no problem without changing the cam. The motor only has about 3k on it since a complete build. I just want to double check with some of the gurus before I go ahead and order solid lifters and rods ect. Jake, Capt or others, is this a good idea, assuming I don't see anything bad on the cam when it's apart? Any performance issues, using that cam with solids?
