I have used the LPE 219/219 on press-in stud heads on my old 91 z28,shifted at 6200 and never broke a stud.. Using the guide plates,hardened pushrods,7/16 studs and 7/16 1.6 RR made the combination much more durable....
Well, I guess I am intimidated by them in a sense. I am concerned about abnormal guideplate wear, even if they are hardened. How long do guideplates last?
