Which would you choose: G-grind solid lifter or 266 Hyd head?



My dilema:  I have a g-grind cam, but no solid lifter head for it.  But
I also have two hydraulic GTI big valve heads, but with stock cams. 
Either way, I will P&P and get the head rebuilt.

So, I either buy a cam for the heads I have, or buy a head for the cam
I have...  Hmmmmm...  Am I better off buying a more aggressive cam for
the hydraulic head?  Isn't there more restriction in the hyd heads
because the lifter base is lower/bigger though?  (less effective P&P)

My other thinking is that since this head will sit on top of a 8v 2.0
litre w/ 2" TT exhaust I can go with a more aggressive cam than the
g-grind and still get decent low end torque...  It should be about the
same cost, unless I can come up with a good used solid lifter head for
cheap...  Anyone have opinions on the TT 266 hydraulic sport cam?

Thanks for any input!

Mark.

BTW, my Weber TB just sold on ebay for $131 U.S.  Nice bonus!
