Default Anyone in Austin with tools?

Anyone interested in helping take apart the top part of my engine to check the lifters? I'm wanting to replace my lifters and check to see if they pitted my cam. I THINK that's what my problem is. I just don't want to buy the parts and it be something else. I'm still new at this and wanting to learn, so I would appreciate anyone willing to help out! I'll buy ya beer
