If you are putting in new valve guides, it makes economic sense to put in the deep valve seats.

Only 50 miles from my home! I wanted to ask about the extent of their Corvair capabilities... particularly with cylinder heads. Could they handle 140 hp deep valve seats, for example?

I would think so you would have to ask him. He has been involved in custom porting and racing head work for a long time. He is able to dress head gasket seats as well.
