You can fit solid lifters to any cam really, what's more to the point is do you need to ?
If it(cam) doesn't need solid don't fit them as it is just hassle adjusting, whereas a hydraulic does it all for you.
The solids are used with either mega profiles or where very extended(above normal) rpm is used.
If the profile is hydraulic then solid will give no advantage whatsoever.
