I would bet you have a bad batter connection considering all of a sudden battery and starter problems.

Good thing lifters and water pumps are cheap.

Put your old lifters in...they were quiet

As far as the water pump, as long as it spins freely, I guess give it a shot. Remans at napa are only 20 to 30 bucks
