Soon the head will be carted off to the machine shop to cut in new over sized valves (1.70", 1.44") from stock. Do I need to install new hardened seats, or is there enough depth of hardness to just enlarge the stock opening?

The hardening in the stock exhaust valve seats is often quite shallow. A stock valve job or two and the hardening is usually gone. Hard exhaust seat inserts are the way to go.
