Hi All,
I am in the process of restoring my 58 851 I am starting with a overhaul kit for the engine. My first challenge was making a sleeve puller got that done sleeves are out. When it comes time to put the new ones in I have read that it a good idea to get them freezer cold then tap them in with the puck I made for the puller I hope you all agree. The main question I have is about the valve guides that come in the overhaul kit should I bring the head and all the parts to a machine shop or is there a trick or a special tool that I do not have to replace the guides any input would be great.
Thanks
