    HS50 valve guides.

    Does anyone know the correct valve stem to guide clearance? Also has anyone removed the stock cast iron guides? If so how do you remove them. Wondering if they can be pressed out or if they are cast in and have to be machined out.

    Cutting Valve Guides when Porting Head

    In the midst of porting a blue clone head... Is it alright to remove material from the valve guide protruding from the bottom of the intake and exhaust ports? Either cut them flush with the port walls or grind them down some.
