Default Valve job?

I have a Ls1 with 64k. I will be changing heads in a year or two. The motor is out of the car and the heads are off. My querstion is, should I get new valves, valve guides and valve seats? Or should I do this when I get my new heads?

I really wouldn't bother. Especially if you are getting new ones!

With that low miles they are fine...check the deck surface for any brinelling or sratches in the fire ring and get them surfaced if necessary. $80
