Frequently Asked Questions

What does +0.002 oversizing mean?

The guide is 0.002 inches larger in diameter than stock, designed to fit cylinder heads that have worn or enlarged guide bores from use.

Will this fit my Shovelhead?

Yes — this part fits all Shovelhead engines from 1966 through 1977.

Is this for intake or exhaust?

This is an intake valve guide only. You will need a separate exhaust guide if both sides require replacement.

Do I need special tools to install this?

Valve guide installation typically requires a press or specialized removal and installation tools. Professional machine shop installation is recommended.
