Hello All,

New to the Club and was looking for some advice/assistance. I am currently rebuilding my 390 FE and have gotten down to deciding on the cam. I have seen a few solid flat and solid roller choices, but have only been able to track down one hydraulic roller made by Crane. Now some of these questions may seem a little green, but I'll admit I still am such.
Even with a high volume oil pump will I have oiling problems using a hydraulic roller in my FE?

If I NEVER plan on rolling it onto the track, am I wasting my time with using a roller at all?
I have NO problem pulling of valve covers and adjusting valve lash every 3,000 miles or so, but if all I'm gonna do is stomp on it from one light to the next is there any benefit to solid vs. hydraulic roller?
On the Crane site, the following is noted on the hydraulic roller choice: "Will not fit factory Ford FE solid lifter engine blocks." What does that mean? Weren't ALL FE factory blocks solid lifter?

Bear in mind to an extent, money is not an issue. My ultimate goal is to create a complete drivetrain that will kick butt and be given to my son and hopefully his son one day. If Summit is any indicator, the Crane cam and lifters are within my price range. Here's a little about what I have done so far:

390 FE .030 over

Edel heads: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-60069/

HS roller rockers: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CSP-S4006BK/
CSR electric water pump, electric fan, and a March serpentine set-up.

I know some of this is probably a little overboard, but I'm just one of those who wants it there when he "needs" it. Your advice and expertise would be greatly appreciated.
