15 years ago I would have agreed with this. My experience since then is 
the small seats fall out also. I personally have changed more small 
valve heads because of seat fall out than 140 heads.

If you want it bullet proof, you have to spend the money to get new 
seats installed by a Corvair head specialist.

But if you can find a set of never run hot small valve heads-go for it. 
It is still a small percentage of Corvairs that have had the valve seats 
fall out.
