...You can use Felpro Viton Positive-Stop valve stem seals (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/fel-ss72861/overview/make/chevrolet), which are effective and 'do not require machining' of the valve guide boss, or you can use Teflon Positive-Stop valve stem seals (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cca-503-16/overview/) that 'require machining' of the valve guide boss.  For an otherwise stock configuration, the Viton seals are preferred and cost less to install.
