No hardened seats. Most of the heads I had rebuilt were running when removed and in good condition or already had hardened seats (from 74?). Seats were not eroded to the point where it needs replacing.

I say, dont replace the seats unless you really have to. Its a good-to-have, but not a necessity.

Its a fairly common practice though. Hardened seats are installed on 2.11/1.77 heads. And there is not a lot of meat between the I and E seats.
