Post Engine Issues...

While you may get away with a cam/lifter swap...a prudent approach would be to check all the internals for any possible issues. Pulling an engine isn't fun, but it is cheap insurance in the long run.

Double roller steel chain and gears are a must...you might also want to check valve train items [springs, keepers, retainers, seals].

Given the legacy of the car...not a good time for shortcuts.
