The actual engine RPMs they do not care about...
The only thing they do care about is exhaust pressure... But there's a way to solve the issues of exhaust pressure IMO quite easily, at least enough to sort the problem whilst keeping hydraulic lifters... Going to solid lifter is NOT the way forwards for the vast majority of people, it's too much effort - it requires a cam regrind, I reckon soon after you solidise it, you'll wreck the rockers...
I think I've already even mentioned it on here, but there's other cars using near enough identical lifter/rocker designs, but don't have these issues.
You don't need to spend massive amounts of money to solve the problems associated with the lifters IMO.
