Going over somemore things with my 420A-T Build.


Well did more research and found that if a high mileage head and doing a rebuild these are good to replace.

Is this something i can do or should a shop do this part?????

You should absolutely get this done at the machine shop also get them to check if they are within spec. You might not need to replace all 16. Replacing guides is pricey.
