Valve guides is not a DIY home job. It's a precision machining process with press fit install.

100 bucks for a valve guide service and complete assemble with new seals is cheap.

You may have just killed that head entirely. Let your machine shop decide if it's salvage capable or not.

Do you have a link to these? I typed in "Supertech oversized valve guides" but it shows only oversized valves.

You are going to have to speak to them and explain the situation. It's not a on the shelf product but I am sure they can make or get some made for you.
