Sounds like a plan.. Did your lifter come apart? I have seen collapsed ones but never scattered. Roller tip rockers make a terrible mess in an engine have seen that a few times.

Looks good. I would have gone out the bottom tho. Once you do it that way you will never even think about going out the top again IMO.
