Timo,

I dont think offset valve guides are avaiable.

I intend it is to move valves to centerline.

You need to order custom maganese bronze valve guide but undrilled.

After guides pressed in head they can be drilled and rearmed to correct size.

I heard some were fitted by drilling out and inserting an offset 'plug' in the existing guide (IIRC it was Paul Ivey chatting about NCK?)
