We've had a huge rash of these coming in with dead cylinders because of collasped lifters. Always has been the DOD lifters though. The tick...tick noise and sometimes squealing has been the traditional lifter roller pitted and sometimes flat spotted that tears up the lobe on the cam.
They do have updated lifters for both of these concerns that have been on backorder.

so would it be safe to assume that they are probably putting the same lifters back in, since your saying the new style are on backorder?
