Default Should I get new lifters while heads are off?

While my heads are off, should I get new lifters. The stockers only have 15,000 miles on them.

Since you need more money then probably not.

Thats a 50/50 question.Most people get long life out of the lifters(100k miles +)But I collapsed a few with only 5k miles <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I guess what im trying to say is; are the stockers just as strong as say for example COMP CAMS aftermarket lifters?
