 Hello Walter:

 You Really Require the Valve Guide Removal and Installation Tool Kit. This has All the Proper Tools for Removing and Installing New Valve Guides. I have Tried Several Different Procedures Without this Tool Kit and None have Worked. You will be Better Off Taking this Engine to a Shop and have them Install the Guides. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.
