Didn't the same shop finish the guides to the valves you are using? If so
you should be OK - but they need to have been finish-reamed to exact size.
Call them up and ask them (and why are you puling the valves out anyway?)
If they installed them without the valves, take the head back, Pressing the
guides into the head deforms them ever so slightly and IMO requires fitting
them to the valves used.
Normal procedure is to hand the shop the springs, valves, etc. and get back
an assembled head ready to drop on.....

On my past engines if I have the head on its side and install the
valves, when I place the head down, the valves will fall with no help from
me. With this head, the valves do not move and I have to push them down by
hand before they will move.
