Will my 1.6 self align. rr fit on 87 vette heads?

I have the 1.6 Gmpp Self aligning rockers on my car. If I put on a set of 87 vette heads would these work or would I need non-self aligning?
The 87 heads have guides pressed in already.
Thanks

Guides?

The vette heads sometimes have guide plates installed, sometimes not, depending on who had their hands on the heads before. If there are guide plates, just dont use them.

You should be OK as if you walked up in a GM dealership and ordered "non-selfal" rockers you'd get self aligners anyway...

It's true. Not a big deal, but I'd like to keep it one or the other to avoid 'compound rubbin'
