Will I need lifters?

I am going to be running a cc306 cam, I was wondering if I need to change my stock lifters. The stock lifters have 93,000 miles on them. If I will need lifters, what kind do you guys recomend and where can I find them? Thanks in advance, Tom.

When we did my cam swap (a bit larger than the CC306 you're planning on), we went with these OEM lifters from Comp Cams:

My lifters were getting noisy anyways (95K miles) and we figured we might as well replace them since everything was opened up. You'll be running a stronger spring with that CC306 and it's going to beat the snot out of your high mileage lifters if you leave them in there. Swap 'em while the engine is open and you won't have to worry about it later.
