A better valve guide

Maganese bronze valve guides I made for Evo head.

They have a tapered end, revised seal retaining lip and are .100 longer than std to give more support to those itsy bitsy valve stems on these cars when they run high RPM and high lift cams.

I presume they've been run in at least one head post-engineering?

Most of the items that I wind up making are one off type peices, depending on the application. I am not set up to do mass production bits, nor do I think I would be interested at this point. So all of the stuff that I wind up doing is one off, protoype peices to help lend a solution to whatever issue that we are facing. Basically, I like to see what woudl be required for each given sitution and get the job done accordingly, since every application is unique. Things like valve guides in this post, and pretty standard though, in material and sizing, unless a special application calls for something different. SO to answer your question, unfortunately no, at this time I dont have a site where I have products listed, but if you need something, I woudl be happy to help you out.
