I've been having a problem with my exhaust valve guide seals sealing too good. I've heard from a few different shops that I should run an umbrella seal on the exhaust side. Does anyone know if there is an umbrella seal out there to fit in a dual spring with dampner? I believe its like 0.730" or so inside diameter.

Several companies offer them.
Take a spring to a larger machine shop or engine rebuilder and they can match one up.
