Default patriot stage 3 heads

The S2 & S3 ls6 heads are a hell of a deal,but I thought 2.055 valves required larger seats to be installed.That seems like an awful lot of work for only a $50 difference in price?
I'm not knockin' a product that I hav'nt tried,
just looking for some enlightenment on the
subject. Thanks.

Here's the best part.We bought the heads bare (RAW CASTINGS).When the heads are machined I had seats installed that are large enough for 2.08 / 1.625 valves .That is why the price difference is small
