Need lifters

Have teh motor just about done. Just waitong on teh cam to get finished up being ground. The guy doing the cam recomended getting new lifters while its all apart. I priced them through Ford for $46 each which came ou tot like $770 for the set with tax. There has to be a cheaper source somewhere. Anyone have any ideas or recomendations? Im gonna call IH later today

They just got it yesterday and are measuring it now. NOt sure exactlly what all is doing. Talked about increasing the duration and just getting it to flow a little better. To be honest its above my understanding.
