Thanks for the additional feedback and confirmation, Jack. I won't be disassembling and inspecting the heads any time soon, but hopefully the seats look good enough and have enough meat for a valve job, the studs look solid, and the rockers don't have much wear. Pinning the studs sounds like the way to go if I'll be keeping the '59 heads.

Question about valve guides: brass or iron? Machine them for positive seals or run the factory seals?
