Default solid rollers ... is it so bad
I am still looking to be "non-chalant" with my motor, but cant seem to find the right can/lifter combo to take advantage of the flow 550 and up in the head, and yet be agressive.

So will pressure fed rollers lifters have good life under 2000 rpm? Will they feed the upper valve train?

A solid roller with pressure fed lifters will be fine below 2000 RPM. A solid roller on the street will work fine.
