Doug,
The builder didn't originally install new guides. As I recall, he said they looked pretty good.
I had bought the heads used from a friend that had bought them from ebay.
Thanks for your help,
Art

Art, guides don't go bad that fast. Remember that the one who smelt it delt it.
Your builder is screwing you.
He never did the guides to begin with, or he knerled them instead or replacing them.
I'd get a new builder.
1)These things should have had brand new manganese-bronze guides, they look like the ones that Edelbrock uses in thier heads, completely replacing the original cast in iron guides which have to be completely machined out.
If they don't, then you got screwed.
2) Install roller rocker arms to keep the wear round and not hour-glassed. The guides will last forever.[/QUOTE]
