I'm just curious as to what other people have done. When I have my head rebuilt, I'm having a Ferrea Valve Spring kit installed.

Did you replace the valve seats or have them resurfaced? To buy new valve seats its approx $600. So I was just wondering what others have done.

I read in the FSM that you can have them resurfaced, unless they are to worn. Thanks in advance.

You can have the valve seats redone without replacing them...just make sure the valve height is still within spec and if it isn't you can grind the valves down ever so slightly. If you do this you'll have to reshim your head. See service manual for more details
