Veedub heads need new guides now & then, especially for the exhaust
valves. If you're tooled up for it pulling the old guides is a
piecea cake. Core-drill the buttery soft bronze guide, slide the heads
into the oven, heat slowly to 450 degrees Fahrenheit then pop out the
cored guides with a properly sized drift and one well-aimed blow of the
hammer.

Hoover " published, and, if so, where can get one hold of it?
