Reconditioning heads?

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

hey guys, ive been told that i should recondition my ecotecs heads if i were to install roller rockers and new springs along with doing valve stem seals etc. apparently its risky to change the seals and springs because theres a chance that the valve turns and doesnt seal, thus making it possible for the valve to burn out? Does this sound right to anyone?

Thanks

firstly tell us who told you to reco your heads and the reason for it.

my brother who works at a mechanics mentioned to one of his mates that i am going to be doing the valve stem seals, the valve springs and putting roller rockers in and his mate more or less told him that if i am to be doing all that, that it is highly recommended that i reco the heads as there is a chance that the valve can turn and not seal properly and will eventually burn out the valve.

LOL, what a load of shit....They will be fine.

if youre that worried mark the top of the stem and youll be able to position them in their original spot

so i take it that i do not need 2 have them reco'd?

are you installing a big cam that requires springs and maybe rollers?
have you had a leak down test done and got bad results requiring a valve grind and seats re cut?
are your standard rockers showing any signs of wear?
if you answered no to the questions above you should jusst leave your heads alone..
