Thanks, Mike
Since as usual they wouldn’t pull down w the valve guide bar.
I decided to push and pry the valves up one at a time - stick a wedge under the stem to hold it up - cut the heads off w a cut off wheel.
Then pushed um all back down and cut the stems w the torch.
The 5/8 deep socket and a hammer pushed the guides w stem remnant down and out.

Cutting twice is what the hate comments about….takes up half the day

8ba … I simply pry up - pop off the keepers - pull the valve - drive the guides down.
