The other option if you can't or don't want to machine already installed guides would be to use a very thin seal on the top of the guide(most good machinists should be familiar with this product). Hold the valve up(rope/air pressure)while taking loose the spring assembly and install these units</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div>Chip Collingwood<div><a href="http://theukmotorsports.com" target="_blank">theukmotorsports.com</a></div><div><a href="tel:%28804%29%20564-1839" value="+18045641839" target="_blank">(804) 564-1839</a></div></div></div>

all of the late 50's and early 60's BMC products fit into the lower part of the
valve spring retainer and sealed the retainer to the valve stem so that the
retainer acted like an "umbrella" seal. The "o" ring itself did not act as
an oil deflector above the valve guide. </font></div><span><font color="#888888">
