You will need 3 special tools for this job . remove the head and valves . One tool will be turned so that it fits in the guide and is slightly smaller than the guide outer diameter. The other tool will go around the guide and rest on the valve spring seat. This allows the guide to be pressed out without stressing the head . The third tool will fit in the guide and will be recessed so that it slip down over the guide the required distance so that when the guide is pressed in the outer edge will hit on the valve spring seat and position the guide in the correct distance into the head. The tool that was used to go around the guide to press out will be used in the head chamber to support the head during the pressing in process.. I would rather take the head and the new guides to an engine re-conditioner shop and have the job done in 15 minutes so that I could then get then to seat the valves in the head properly
