Regardless, you got your money, but thanks for bringing it up.

BTW, of the 9 GMPP guideplates we ordered, only 3 were properly hardened, so I will be getting the Trick Flows.

I bought the trick flows and sat them on top of my GMPP plates and they were exactly the same. Look tougher too. No comment on how it runs because the motor hasn't been fired yet.

what size push rods are you guys using?
is 3\8s too big?
i see the TFS-30400623-8 are for 5/16ths pushrods.
are the isky made for the same or can you get them for 3\8ths?
i was looking at tfs 3\8 hardned chromoley one piece push rods, will these work or are there no guide plate for them?

I installed TrickFlow guideplates last weekend, and they align near perfect. Haven't started the car yet (fingers crossed).
