Removing lifters and ball studs m117

What is the procedure/tool for compressing the valve springs with the cams in the car to remove the lifters without pulling the cams? I'm trying to get some parts from the Pick and Pull and someone stripped the cam tower bolts trying to get the cams out. I'm after some solid ball studs. Is there a difference in lifters between M117 engines including the aluminum engines?
Also wondering will 5.6 cam towers fit 4.5 heads? I think I read there was a slight angle difference in the bolts.
Tks!
