You are going to want to use aftermarket lifters. You have two options Comp Cam Comp R lifters or Morel. There have been past issues with people using the Comp R lifter coming apart. I'm not sure if it's still an issue or not. The morel are top of the line, and with that you will pay a premium. About double the price. I've run the Comp Rs for years with any problems.

You don't to run stock lister with that many miles. The spring pressure you need for the 306 is too much and will collaps them. Even new stock lifters might be an issue so I would spend the few extra dollars and upgrade.
