Description

The EngineQuest EQ-GP181M is a set of four guide plates engineered to maintain proper valve train geometry in Small Block Chevy and 181 3.0L GM 4-Cyl engines. These components are crucial for ensuring the rocker arm remains centered on the valve tip, preventing premature wear and potential damage. Constructed from a durable combination of cast iron and aluminum, the EQ-GP181M guide plates are built to withstand the rigors of engine operation. This set is designed to work with specific EngineQuest cylinder head part numbers, including EQ-CH181M, EQ-CH181MA, EQ-CH305B, and EQ-CH305BA. Please note that the EQ-SIS350 screw-in studs required for installation are sold separately. Proper installation is essential for optimal performance and longevity of the valve train components.

Orders are processed in 1–3 business days. In stock parts ship promptly from our partner network. Special-order items either aren’t currently stocked or are built to your spec — expect 4–6 weeks. If a part goes on backorder while your order is in the queue, we’ll reach out and work through discounted alternatives together.

Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands), and international orders carry surcharges — most appear at checkout. Some exceptions (LTL freight, or suppliers who quote freight only after we place the order) won’t. In those cases we’ll reach out with the exact charge before your order moves forward.
