No, I wouldn't replace the intake seats and furthermore, on the heads I have 
ruined .... er ...... raced, the exh seats came out. And if you do have to 
have them done or anyone, you need to know what and how  you want them done 
as often the local guy will do them cold, for one thing, and use larger od 
seats which causes problems..

Good Luck
