cam and lifters
I have been hearing this noise from my car for about a week now. I had one of my friends come see what he thought and he said that it sounded like the lifters were bad. Now my question. is it possible to lifters on a cam that has over 200k on it or do I need to put in a new cam?

you can put new lifters in, but on my 88 the cam was scratched so it still made noise.

Don't even worry about it, until it doesn't run don't bother fixing it, lots of cars have lifter noise.

If it's over powering the sound of your engine then you've got a bigger problem than lifters.
