They are pricey. Aftermarket ones are the same as far as I know. Here are a few recent auctions:

You don't want to use "used" lifters on anything but the cam they cam off of, and the lobe they came off of. Order of reliable break in use: 1. used cam-original used lifters on original lobes; 2. new cam-new lifters, 3. used cam-new lifters (have the used cam re-parkerized for about $20. parkerizing is a lubricant-rust preventive and would help in breaking in the new lifters). GM lifters match the hardness of GM cams and are the best for restoration motors. I never had a flat lobe using GM lifters, no matter what oil and zinc is used.

I think Jerry MacNeish and most guys use the Comp Cams versions for the 302. Crane makes lifters also. Probably pays to buy new cam and lifters as a set.
