lifter noise on 428 CJ

I have 6000 miles on a professional rebuild on my 69 C.J. It slowly developed a lifter or rocker noise that when hot ranges from mild to quite loud depending on the day.
I replaced the front rockers where the noise seemed to be coming from but to no avail.
The engine was blueprinted and is all stock with exception of a mild crane cam.
I have heard that the valve trains in the F.E. motors are marginal at best but this may be a wifes tale.
I would consider a full blown roller set up if someone could recomend the best set up.
Thanks
