That much seat pressure usually requires short travels. If you have to run much over 160 it is usually time to run short travels.

Factory original valves have a part number on them
Factory valves will normally have a GM part number on them.
Usually stamped on the stem, up near the retainer grooves.
If you disassemble a couple of yours, you will know if they're original.

you can have the studs "Pinned" if you are worried, and thats cheap compared to a head work over. I have used 15 heads with big valves installed ( makes a 70HO head) and loved them.
