"....a little bigger?"
As a general rule when going from a hyd flat tappet to a solid flat tappet many add a significant amount of additional duration. Not uncommon to read 8-10 additional degrees, while in many instances its touted more than that.
Example, note the combination here:

After this write up Lee improved on his time over what is stated here. I believe it was a best of 11.46 at 115.4 mph. And in our horrid Texas summer heat he ran 11.70 at 113.4 mph. Lee later changed to a Ultradyne solid flat tappet cam with 247/247 degrees at .050 with .575 lift on a 108 lobe separation. With the change he ran a best of 11.27 at 119.61 mph. And Lee reported no significant decrease in driveability with the change dispite the 16 degrees additional intake duration.
