Default FI Lifters and Rockers

I have some issues with ticking on the car and from what I have out its prob a lifter,

Reason I say prob is because there is no sign of spun bearing, It has upgrade springs and chrome moly push rods.

So with that said what are you high HP FI guys running for lifter and rocker arms as I am going to replace those things here shortly along with check the springs and push rods.

Car will be tuned for 25psi on a T76 Qtrim. Those 2 items are pretty much the only stock parts on my car

My old YT rockers + springs were pretty loud. I am now running stock rockers and ETP springs and the valvetrain is noticeably quieter... I am thinking the YT's were to blame.

So using stock rockers do you have to do anything special to them or just bolt them on and go?
