In the process of rebuilding the engine, I mixed up the valve lifters. I remember there being some motors out there where used lifters are not interchangeable between valves. Is it ok to do so for the KA?

Is there a difference in the valve lifters? They have been taken out and I need to replace them. :)

The lifters are the same.The shims on top of the lifters can vary in thickness.

^Yup, I just gave everything to my machine shop during my rebuild. He set the valve lash via the shims.
