    head repair- need help

    i am rebuilding a m20b27 head and need the factory specifications for the valve guides. i wanna see if they are either too worn or within spec.

    NO i do not have the manuel. any other specs for the head would be appreciated.

    you serious. NO ONE has these specs? i see tons of people rebuilding their heads. do they just not measure anything and buy all new parts?

                    just change the guides to factory spec. your valve stems are much harder material then your guides. the machine shop you take it too will know what ones to put in. it's not rocket science and you're not building the space shuttle. get new valve seals too.
