Section 11 covering Stock Eliminator under Camshaft/Lifters makes no mention of changing lifter diameter. Therefore it is illegal to do so.
Considering how the rule is worded, could it be argued that an increase in lifter diameter is not a "performance-related modification"? As in, the modification should increase strength/reliability, but not performance.
