Yank the lifters and give em a good cleaning, or upgrade to the new style.

You could . . .

Turn up your stereo so you can't hear them
Loosen your exhaust to give yourself a huge exhaust leak which will drown out the sound of the lifters which was something similar to what I had until I bought Darko's old downpipe, now I can hear those pesky lifters.

But other than what Darko suggests there isn't too many options . . there's a VFAQ for lifter cleaning...

Good Luck
