Do you need me to pull one out off of my 454 LSX motor?

You could take a stock one and pop the clip off of it by the plunger. Take it apart and put small washers in it to take up all of the room, just make sure it is tight and reassemble. There's your new solid lifter

i've used a spring that i bought at ACE hardware that just fit around the valve and held up the retainer. super weak, but held the weight of the valve.

the spring is accessible and only cost like, .30 haha
