Default Aftermarket Lifters

Hey guys, I recently starting getting a ticking noise in my 01 SS and have started diagnosing the problem with coming to the conclusion I believe a lifter is going out on me. I'm currently running stock lifters on the car with all mods listed in my signature. My question is I plan on pulling the heads soon and putting some aftermarket lifters in the car but want to know what everyone reccommends for good aftermarket hydraulic lifters. What stuff have you guys been using that works for you? I don't plan on changing my setup much but may possibly go to a bigger cam and aftermarket heads in the future but probably wont go much bigger then Texas Speeds Magic Stik 4 if I do. Any guidance you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated.

If your not going to be spinning much over 7,000 rpms is just go stock replacement....you have the ls1 lifters now which they don't make anymore, so you would get ls7 lifters by defsilt...they have some more meat to them and are built alitttle better

LS7 lifters are stock lifters. If you want aftermarket and a high quality lifter, then Morel is the way to go.
