Anybody runnin GM guideplates?
bought these specifically for the lt1 alum. head but heard they may be unhardened? To check before install? How do you go about this?
Id rather buy something right now rather than to go back into it while its in the car and the intake is on and reset the rockers
Any advice is appreciated

A simple way of checking if they are hard is to use a file on them. Try to file on a spot where it won't effect the guide plate. If the file "sings" which means it just rubs or may scratch the plate a little, the plate is hard. If the file cuts into the guide plate it isn't hard. This will not tell you how hard the plate is just give you an idea if its been hardened.

An alternate would be the Trickflow Part # 30400623-8.
