Default How to remove and clean lifters?

Im replacing the bad 0331 head in my 2000 XJ and noticed the lifters had an absurd amount of crud on them. I cannot fit my fingers down there and the magnet i have is not pulling them out either. Not sure what to do. Also, What is the best way to remove all the carbon buildup on all of the cylinders?
