Good luck!
Well, I did get to it tonight. Tapped one hole each end, just into the top plate holes then inserted very short bolts, just a couple turns. I could then get a screw driver under the bolt head and pry against the TB and up it came. I waited at least a couple years to get this done not wanting to chance chipping paint or ruining the stock plate.

Thanks for that tip Ted!!!

The new LT5 Billet plate looks great there compared to my work bench....
