Martin,
Installing valve guides is basic machine shop work-any qualified shop should be able to do it. it is not something you could do yourseld. Once installed the guide needs to be honed to the proper ID with respect to the valve seat-so the valve will seat correctly and not at a angle to the seat. There is no way one could do that their self. But as I said it is basic machine shop work. Oversizeds guides are install frequently-i'm sure even there.
