Re: Buying new engine!!!
I believe we can use Ls7 lifters and I think those were determined to be better. Don't get the OE-R lifters...1) they are noisier, 2) the tolerances are much more tighter, I think you have like 0.010-0.020 of play...where as on the OE lifters you still have the 0.050 of play which is much more forgiving when you do your setup.
I don't know about the yella terra rockers either...I think warstrike used those (but don't quote me) and he couldn't fit them under the stock valve covers....higher valve covers cost about 300$...
Here, you want the website where I found my 4,000 km engine? It allows you to search all the junkyards everywhere in Canada and the U.S for any part

search texas and see what you find. Quick search in your area under a 2005 buick lesabre (which is still a 3.8 series II, and what I used) I found a 35,000mile boneville for $750...Im sure you can find better though...even if you have to travel a state...
