Default Cam upgrade. Upgrade lifters to? 2.0

Got a 88' ranger with the 2.0 4cyl and instead of sapping motors and shit I want a little more power so I want to just upgrade to a comp cam
When I do, what else do I need to upgrade? Lifters? I hear push rods to? But idk

No pushrods in your SOHC. You will need to do research on your engines Valve Lift limitations so you do not exceed the max lift of the stock components or you will have to have the cylinder head modifications and piston with deeper valve reliefs.
