Oh didn’t know it was specific for solid or hydraulic roller. My oil pan gasket was leaking and putting a set of heads on soon and was turning motor over and it sounds very clicky when I turn motor over. Even though motor only has 400 miles on it it seems like it has some play in it. Maybe it’s just oil making it stick to sprockets and coming off. But screw it I was gonna put one on.

It's not specific for solid or hydraulic, it's a billet steel timing set, and I usually try to match those with billet steel (roller) cams and steel thrust plates to keep the wear surfaces compatible.
