That's a pretty aggressive cam for a 289, if you've got some compression it will thump. It is always a good idea to replace your locks. Think of it as cheap insurance. Better to spend a little on locks than replace a motor because of a dropped valve.

I'm thinking with 35000 miles on that bump stick, you need new guides anyways
