[Fot] RE GT6 guides

[Scott Janzen]

thanks - it's a later style head, not a MkI.
The interference fit on the guide that moved, on second examination,  
was not adequate.  It looks like Jaguar guides are about a 1/4"  
longer, 5/1000 larger diameter, and can easily be reamed out, turned  
down and shortened.
Unless I find someone that supplies oversize guides, this is the  
approach I'll take.

the guides are different Mk1 to Mk2 head, and you havge no said which  
it is

there were at least 6 different guides over the life of the 6 cyl and  
some wholesalers sell guides for a few other cars, as the ID/OD  
dimenions are identical but length varies

I'll go into the workshop on monday and measure some
