Default how do you get the lifters out of the SOHC head?

I figured that they should come right out but the seem to be stuck. Is there any trick into getting them out? Does anyone have a lifter laying around that they could take a picture of? I need to get them out to compare them to my project cars lifters. Its not a neon so I want to see how similar they are.

Thanks
Phil

Um, neons dont really have lifters that I know of. They are OHC so they really just have rockers...

Yer right, The Cam's are never quite exactly on the valve stem on any motor, Chrysler 2.2's sohc had smallhydrolic lifters and so do GM DOHC motors.
