I'm sorry to have to ask but I am once again stumped.
Picked up a 383, '66 casting date machined block, crank, etc. that someone had never gotten around to assembling.
Looking at flat tappet hydraulic lifters and find some, but not all, make a distinction on year; many list '68 up, but some don't even mention it.
Is there actually a difference in lifters between 67 back and 68 up?
Thanks in advance!

67 and older had small cup in lifter, and used a matched small tipped pushrod. Exactly. As long as you use lifters and pushrods for the same year applcation(67 down/68 up), there is no problem.
