I purchased a set of jugs to replace originals with several broken fins on a 55 KHK. The original valve stems measure close to .338 and will not fit in the new cylinders, whose valve guides measure ~.300. When I compare the original and new cylinders side by side, the valve guides in the originals look a little beefy compare to the replacements. I'm not sure what is going on... has anybody ran into this before? Can the valve guides be reamed to accept the original valves or do I need to be looking for another set of valves. Thanks, Mike
