Note: When new valve guides are installed, new valves and new valve seat inserts must be installed. The valve guides and the valve seat inserts are supplied as partially finished parts. The unfinished valve guides and unfinished valve seat inserts are installed in the cylinder head. Then, the guides and inserts are cut and reamed in one operation with special tooling. This procedure ensures the concentricity of the valve seat to the valve guide in order to create a seal that is tight. Refer to the Disassembly and Assembly Manual for removal and installation procedures.
