I’m trying to stay away from solid lifters.

I’m going to show my ignorance here, but could I run the same grind as the original solid lifter GM cam (143) only with hydraulic lifters?
In other words, give a cam manufacturer like Erson or Howard’s the original GM cam specs and have a non-roller hydraulic lifter cam made?
