I guess not having any personal experience and reading a bit of stuff about the 'toothpick' thing, increased lobe speed......
there seems to be lots of different opinions, which is good, just makes it a little tougher to filter through it all when you're new to the game.

You tell DART or the DEALER, me, what your after when you order. The valves are well capable of handling even severe roller cams with proper springs and 7500rpm. We have done it many times. Also good push rods too. Hyd rollers are very easy and most likely will be fine with the springs as long as coil bind does not accur. Most hyd roller shelf cams quit making power around 6000 rpm so you would be fine. The dyno will prove that also so I don't need to here how you can run them @ 8000rpm. It is possible but not very smart!
