Is it possible to remove the lifters without pulling the intake ? Just asking . Thanks Also do you think roller lifter would need to be replaced with over 200,000 miles

No.
To remove the lifters you need to remove the spider and dog bones first. This requires removing the intake.

As far as replacing the lifters, as long as they haven't gone soft you should be good, at least with a mild cam.
New lifters or old, disassemble and clean them out real good before using/ reusing them.
 

Yes it's possible, but you won't be able to get it back together with the intake manifold on and you may **** up your Spring Steel spider that holds all the lifter bones
 
Na, the stock rollers lifters come out without pulling the heads.
Good to know.
I know retrofit rollers don't come out of a LA block (which have shorter lifter bores) with the heads in place, but I wasn't positive about the factory rollers in a Magnum. Never had occasion to try.
 
They can come out with the heads on but its difficult because the head gasket interferes with their removal but it can be done .
