Some will say new one's are needed, others say you don't. I did mine since they had 90K on them, and figured since i had the heads off why not... When you took them out, how did they look? Any rotting,pitting, or groves that you can feel with your finger nail, and i would replace...

IMO if you have 50,000 or under you are in risk of causing more problems switching them.
stock lifters are fine. IF you decide to do it, buy the GM OEM replacements, they are cheap and obviously work well.
