The lifters, cam lobes and valve stems all wear over time, that's why they need adjusting. You could find that some or all of them are OK or at the very least you may be able to re-use some in other positions. You'll just have to fit them and check. Hydraulic lifters don't normally have shims though as they self adjust. Only the solid lifters need shims.
