get a set of 3rd gen lifters, they have larger oil ports and are pretty cheap. doesn't take more than an hour to swap them out.

No, its the 4G64, they have slightly larger diameter lifters, and they are known to resist ticking a lot more than the 4G63.

The lifters will tick if they are 'bad'. However, its not really a big deal, its more of an annoyance than anything.
