This message, and the response to it, has me confused. There is no
difference that I know of between the two heads on a 66. There is no temp
sensor boss, because this is 2 years before FI started. These should just
be single port heads. Replacement of valve guides is standard practice.
Don't let anyone talk you into cast iron guides; use bronze with the latest
style valves. Don't use cheap valves, it's a foolish economy.
