They are not rusted in place in most cases. This will RUIN the lifter bores. The lifters are mushroomed from wear. Push them out the bottom and let them fall to the floor. If the motor is assembled in the car, read my other post. NEVER USE THIS TOOL.
DO NOT EVER DO THIS! NEVER EVER! Pull the lifters up in the bore by hand until they stop and hold in place. Pull out the ones that slip out. Take the cam out. Make a cardboard or aluminum trough to slip in place of the cam. Push the ones that won't come up, down into the trough ONE AT A TIME. Fish them out with a magnet pickup tool. This way you don't damage the bores pulling a mushroomed lifter up, ruining the lifter bore.
