Thanks for the replies. I will definitely scour the old posts and see what I can find. Owen, I was looking at the service manual and they had a specific tool for pressing in the new guide that had a collar that bottoms out against either the head or valve seat, not sure which, that insured the new guide was driven to the right depth. I guess I'll just measure the old one and try the get it close and then check clearances as you suggested. Thanks!
