6x 4 heads

Just dropped off old set of 6X 4 heads to be redone.  Do I need to have the valve seats replaced to harden ones?  And what kind of porting should I have done?  They are going on a 455 +.040 4 speed '66 GTO with headers.  Engine is getting rebuilt with a roller hyd.

No the 6X heads should have harden seats already.

Make sure someone competant is porting as too much porting is bad
