High rpm will result in more oil in the top of the engine, and more oil around the guides. -Walt 74 TR6 Those two things don't usually; /html/6pack/2002-11/msg00327.html (8,154 bytes)

I've heard from a great many people on this list and most all of them have leaned towards valve guides. I'm also having to educate myself o; /html/6pack/2002-11/msg00341.html (10,387 bytes)
