<VV> Staking valve seats?

[levair at aol.com]

I would suggest that you warm the heads to 500 F or above so that you 
are not staking cold, brittle aluminum.
   Then when the heads cool the staking is even tighter.

I'm thinking I'm going to stake my valve seats for my 140 before I 
install
the heads. Anyone have any tips or input before I do this? I have Clarks
staking tool.

Thanks. :)
