there only about £30 a set,so well worth replacing.
some people say only replace em with a new cam aswell,i say bull plop,replace em whenever.
as for wheel bearing,jack car up and check for side to side and up and down play at the rear ,with the handbrake off.
you should be able to hear which side its droning from,and for the sake of about £15,you may aswell just put a new bearing in.
easy job to do,and well worthwhile.
thanks for the comment on my car,in really enjoying driving it after the resto
good luck
steve

the lifters have been replaced mate im also running a piper cam would this make it more noisy?

will check for bearing play tomorrow thanks for that info noise sounds like it coming from drivers side, will i not need a press to replace the bearing?

wish mine looked like yours
