Post hydraulic roller valvetrain for HP street??

My engine builder made the suggestion to me that we avoid the hydraulic roller camshaft and lifters due to the $$ of them. The car is a 93 Mustang and the 392 I'm building will be EFI equipped with Carb#'s on all parts (well, almost all the parts :-) in hopes of passing emissions with a smog pump. He also commented that the hydraulic roller setup is not worth the money for a daily driven street 392 stroker that won't be seeing 6-7K Rpm's on the street. I will be taking it to the strip occassionaly. He also said the final decision was of course up to me. I already bought the Crane 1.6 Gold Race Roller Rockers....What do you think? Go with the hydraulic roller or something else??
