Look for a cause.
"bad lifters" while often blamed for noises and such are rarely actually bad and damage like you are describing almost certainly has to do with a major valvetrain fuckup, be it assembly or horribly chosen parts combo we can't guess at without more info.

I had 8 that would not pump up. Look for a cause but they can go bad.
