?? This can only tell you condition of rings and valve seats/facesl, not guides. If valves seal as they should at the seat, nothing gets to the guides.

Check? Dunno... I've been toying with the thought of doing mine by pressurizing the cylinders with the head on the block. Problem I have is that I don't think my rings will hold enough pressure to make this feasable. Bob Bundy wrote: How do you check the valve seals and guides without disassembling the head from the block again. I am getting so frustrated with having to pull the head all the time.
