lifters for a 355 with 6-71 blower

What is best for use with a supercharged engine?
solid lifters, hydraulic, or hydraulic roller lifters ?
I don't expect the engine to rev higher than 6,000 or 6,500 RPM's
My block originally had rollers because it was an L98.

I think the usual trade-offs apply- solid versus hydraulic. Noise vs. a bit more power. Lower maintenance vs. a bit more power, etc. I don't think a blower changes the usual equation at all.

Thanks.
I just wondered because I don't think I've ever seen roller lifters in a supercharged engine.
