Message	Though I have no idea how this happened. I just finished a valve job on my car. I recommend either buying someone's used heads, checking it out yourself before installing, or fixing this valve guide and calling it a day. Without an explanation of how this happened I think there's less risk if you buy someone else's used heads. This is a sensitive area and you don't want to do this twice if you can avoid it. If you're considering upgrading the engine only then go for the new heads. Go IPP. Zarcasm(Hfd, CT) view My Technical posts (click here) view My General posts (click here)
