I've decided that now is the time to address the guides on my 3.2. I've pushed my luck enough. Now is the time to rebuild the heads. Better now than after a valve looses a head.

I am in the same position with my SC motor. I am using about just under 1 quart of oil per 250 miles (although I do have some serious valve cover bolt leakage).
I am an obvious noob ... what happens when a valve looses a head? Will it result in a more expensive rebuild?
Also, major props to Wilke3169 (Kevin). He is certainly one of the nicest guys I have met. He has helped me numerous weekends - in fact he helped be install my carrera style oil cooler a couple of months ago. Great guy! It doesn't surprised me that he delivered that stuff to your door.
Best wishes and please continue to keep us updated.
Cheers,
Craig
