Help with correct Valve seal please.

I have a seat of Vortec heads and i had the guides machine down so i could put better springs on them. What would be the best Valve seal to go with or the stock will be okay?

These particular ones are for .530" guides. They also make them for .500" guides. Get whichever your guides are cut down to.

I did the same thing to my heads. Mesure the valve guide and then call and get the right seal. Vortec heads are the best thing since sliced bread. You will love them.
