Are you looking for the information on how to machine the heads themselves?

To replace valve guides you need to tear the engine down to the point that the heads have been removed. You then "machine" the heads to remove the old guides, install new ones, maybe a flycut, and grind the valves to fit. you then reassemble. The steps are in Waynes book except for the machine shop work.
