Default Solved, valve stem seal

My cylinder head must have been remanufactured with fatter valve guides. The guides are 0.01 fatter than the inside diameter of the seals.
Having made the measurements the wonderful techs at Fel-pro specified a set that will be a correct fit on the stem but 0.005 too large on the guide. A stop of Locktite should obviate that problem.
