Thanks Owen,
Just read your last post. Thanks for the dimensions. I have a machinist friend who can make that for me. I'm not where I can look at the guides in the engine right now but I think I remember that the guides are tapered at the top to a fairly sharp top edge. In other words they don't have a very wide flat surface, if any, at the top for the tool to drive against. Probably won't matter.

Do you have the dimensions for the valve stem height adjustment tool? I could probably have that made as well as a driver that has a shoulder on it for setting the depth of the guide in the block. Looks like it may take two of those. One for intake and one for exhaust.
