Re: CAM QUESTION
JR!
If "set up" refers to its grind, then no, its profile will be too radical for a hydraulic to pump up properly.
Beware that even the Andrews 'A' grind, which they swear is hydraulics-compatible, is widely known for allowing hydraulics to hammer violently at a hot idle.
I found out the hard way,
