Minimum parts for the fix?
My friend, a former GM tech, is a teacher now at nearby auto trade school. He has offered to pull the heads and check/replace the guides, valves, etc. All labor free of charge. Assuming some of the exhaust valves are out-of-spec, what are the minimum parts should I provide to accomplish "the fix"? Car has 40k of fairly easy miles but it is modded with a tune. Should I throw new springs in on a stock cam? Thanx.

Springs would be dependent on your choice of valve material. If you're going OEM the LS7 springs are fine.

You might send him a PM and see what he has to say.
Good luck.

What is your friend doing for guides? Bronze or PM?
