    Thanks a lot for this very complete and instructive tutorial. Wish I had all these expensives dials so I could do it by myself as I'm really reluctant to leave this work to machine shops from my area.

    My exhaust guides in my jag are the same size as these, just wondering if there is not enough interference fit for a new standard guide can you just go one thou larger diameter or would the bore need opening up to accept that?

    Do you know where I can get that tool set for 5.5mm valves? It looks like a heck of tool for the DIYer. I want to port a Suzuki G16B engine.

    would it not be easier if the factory supplied pre sized v/guides and valves in the first place. It would worth the extra cost to the average bike owner who do do have time or space , cost of tools to do this.

      Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment. It depends on the application… for most road bikes it would probably be fine considering not everyone has the tools to be able to properly size a valve guide. However, the valve guide is the base of a quality of valve job. The straighter the guide the better. You can’t get that with a “pre sized” guide

    OLÁ. PRABENS PELO USO DO APALPADOR COM RELÓGIO. (é insubstituível). Sugiro usar somente a embreagem do micrômetro. Há o que melhorar no "tratamento antagônico" Sugiro usar "gelo seco" com álcool. Não use "Nitrogênio Líquido". ABRAÇOS... Roberto Udo Krapf

    You keep saying “tenths”, but I think you really mean “ten thousandths”. There’s a big difference, so please clarify for those who aren’t familiar with using a micrometer and bore gauge.
