Response to If done correctly ... installing hardened exhaust seats is not a problem |
| I run hardened seats in all my trucks I work them pretty hard and have found the stock seats will erode very quickly if hardened seats are not installed. I have run stock seats in the galaxie and no problems. IMO it has to do with how hot they get. I pull a 11k gooseneck horse trailer with the 69 F250 it sunk all 8 exhaust valves in less than 10k miles with a stock set of C8EA-H heads
