J35 v tec valve guide options.

I think I have worn valve guide seals and maybe guides too.
definitely lots of oil accumulation at idle. Engine smokes after idle
Most dealers hondapartsnow and others seem to only carry oversized valve guides

I plan to do everything myself. Any options for original size guides. I'd prefer original steel. People also use bronze

Basically need to do it once and drive another 250k miles

Looked around on various sites.
People say when you take valve guides out they rip out significant amount of aluminum with them. That's why all replacement guides are oversized. Seems like a major project.

Wonder if there are slightly over sizes valves. Supertech makes some valves for Honda. Will update . The idea is to just buy aftermarket valves that are a hair wider in stem diameter.
