valve guides

Hey guys - nice to meet you. I've been on the TDR for a few years now but just joined here....looking forward to lots of great times!

I'll kick this thing off by asking about valve guides. I'm in the middle of a rebuild and am looking for a good way to remove the rubber valve guides. Got any ideas?

Thanks!

Must be Valve Seals.
If your asking about removal with head still on block...don't know. But be sure an replace with 3rd Gen 'Viton' seals... last much longer.

Yes, the rubber valve seals is what I am talking about, and no, the head is not on the block. I have never heard of viton seals. Do they transfer right over?
