The spring pressure for a street cam should only be 45/50LBs installed length of the spring. So the length and type of keeper is immaterial. Yes the solid lifters work well, in the 90's they were all I could et and used them in many engines./ Now if you feel the spring pressure is too low, run what makes you happy. For years I ran 60/70 lbs worked oK, I think.
