I didn't mean before you install the guides, rather before you install the
valves.

Bill, I'm curious as to why you say to do this before assembly, rather
than after. I've heard that the bronze TR guides tend to distort as they
are
installed, and need to be reamed after installation ? Certainly mine
seemed to close up after installation, but I didn't measure them carefully
beforehand.
