Another question on this subject is if sleeves should be used in the heads when replacing the valves?

I assume your are talking of bronze liners in the guides. Yes, they can be used; make sure the machine shop has the appropriate reamers and knows how to do it.

Yep, you are correct, those are the ones I mean. You say they can be used, but is it necessary? Any pros/cons on that?

other than k-liners, new guides or the ol' knurl job are your choices.1st NEVER knurl guides. Liners are good though, they're used every day in race shops to restore high dollar manganese bronze guides.
