OR find some 25 year old or older NOS lifters. I agree. However, I very recently had great success with some NEW Melling lifters from Summit. I got the damned cheapest ones they had. $4.99 a piece and they worked perfect. That was AFTER a failed set of expensive Crower Cam Saver lifters wouldn't stop ticking when hot. They broke in fine, but all 16 were noisy when hot. I drove it probably 500 or more miles and said screw it and tore back into it and put the Mellings in. So far, over 2500 miles on it and it's quiet as a mouse cold or hot and runs great. Melling for the win!
