Default which lifters?

my engine recently broke a lifter which i have read can be common on standard ones i am going to replace the cam with one from vinci high performance called the "butt kicker" but i am undecided on lifters i want the fully encapsulated versions rather than the standard ls1s so i was thinking of

ls7 lifters, new oem lifters or aftermarket of some kind?

my engine spec is: ported standard heads crane 1.8 rockers, double valve springs, titanium retainers, crane 7.25 push rods, stock bottom end, tubular manifolds and ls6 intake
thanks
