I did springs and lifters in my 29 in the boat.
It's really not that big of a deal.
I would strongly consider changing the lifters while your doing the springs in those era engines.
When the springs couldnt keep the roller on the cam, the needles in lifters would get pounded,
axles would come out and once the roller is gone, you have a big mess.
