Stripping k1 engine to replace casing.
Any tips on removing exhaust valves and guides, without special tool. 
Intake valves slipped right out,  exhaust side are all in...

Do not five them up without removing the  carbon. 
 The tool is simple to make with a lathe.
 Do they have a snapring?
 There is a trick if they do that can make it easier.
 Did you warm the head for the "intakes pushed right out"?

some have used a bolt of the right size with a nut or 2 ground down so it will pass through as the guide goes out,heat the head up it will be easier .

 The valve stem tips have flared....you need to rotate the valve with some fine sandpaper wrapped around the stem tip until the valve drops out. Purchase a 6.6mm valve guide drift. You have to bead blast the ports ( as mentioned earlier) or you will drag carbon through the guide bore. After heating the head to about 250F drive the guides out from the bottom.
 I have removed and replaced at least 50 lbs of guides over the years in this manner.

 This drift is nicely made and reasonably priced

The key to the driver is a slight undercut, so that you do not flare the top of the guide or get the driver stuck in the guide. A hand ground one can easily hurt the guide.
 I hate dragging carbon thru the head, so I often drill the top of the guide mostly thru, then break top of guide off at snap ring.. Then. Remove into the port if there is room.
 Then you are not dragging carbon thru the guide bore.
