Question on lifter retainers so lifters dont fall during cam install

IS there a way to install a cam on an LT1 without having to worry about the lifters falling into the block?
Do they make a lifter retainer like the LS1's that keep them from doing that..?

So if in the future, i want to change the cam, all i have to do is slide the cam out and push the new one back in and not have to worry about anything.

You just very simply pull the lifters out. You have to have the intake manifold off anyway to remove the Oil pump drive to slide the cam out.
