Just take rhe cylinder head to a decent machine shop and have them ream the guide to size, you will have to get that valve and seat ground to specs at that time also. It shouldn't cost more than about $50.00 for the job, depending on your locality.

That's normal. You're supposed to ream the guide to fit the valve stem in order to achieve the correct side to side clearance.
