You're probably on the right track. I wonder how new
lifters will work with an old cam? You know a lifter needs to be
replaced exactly where it came from on a used cam so I'm just
thinking you might have a cam failure with new lifters on that
cylinder. Of course it really can't hurt much as you need to do
something anyway. I wonder if the seats could be receded too?

A "pumped up" lifter acts like a stuck

give.
As opposed to a "collapsed" lifter: will not hold oil to
properly open the valve. (Assuming correct oil pressure.)

Richard,
You should not have any issues with new lifters on a used cam as
long as you use a good break-in lube/oil.
