but how many to use ??  Bob mentions tapping the hole, but
do you then use a set screw also, or just hope the upsetting tap will do the
job ?
Me being a belt & suspenders guy ( and having dropped a valve seat in my
Turbo, at some cost in $$$ and aggravation ) .... I would use 3 per valve
seat, and do both intake and exhaust seats (g).... but anyone out there with
detailed experience ??

I had the seats set screwed by Steve Goodman. He used 3 screws per seat, 
intake and exhaust. I looked like regular screws were used and the heads carefully 
removed. Very nice job, I'd highly recommend it.
