Valve Guide Question

Posted by SproutW on February 24, 2005 at 17:48:35 from (64.4.163.58):

I'm currently lost on my F-20 project. I ordered up a new set of guides for the motor. I recieved the guides and noticed right off the bat they are not an exact replacement. The original guides are mushroom shaped (lack of a better term. Part of the guide is used to center the valve spring. On my new guides they are just a straight shaft with no flange to center the spring. The new guides are also about a half inch shorter in length. The new guides however will press into the head no problems. They are shorter and do not have the flange that centers the spring. NAPA sold the exact same guides that I bought, so I know the new guides are for the F-20. Can someone clue me in on what I'm missing. Thanks.
