Head issues

So I took my car into GST the other day and found a laundry list of problems. They only looked at my car real quick and didn't really get inside as far as I know. Anyway, they think I have a broken lifter, which I suspected because of the rattle it makes. I'm going to replace the lifters and I was wondering what else I should look for/replace that could also be damaged?

Note: I didn't do this to the car, I bought it like this lol.

You may just want to let GST know that your car has no lifters , you have buckets . Most likely you have some bent valves which is the rattle you hear . If you car had a broken bucket you would have a more serious issue .

it looks like he posted this in the wrong section. Looks like he drives an Evo 8, which would have lifters.
