Default Lq4 Texas Speed parts question

Hi, was getting ready to order this Texas Speed cam kit and wanted to get someone's opinion on it before I place the order to let me know if it's right, or might not be a good idea. Notice the bolded below talking about valve seats.

I have a LQ4 junkyard motor that will soon have unmilled 799 heads (same as 243) and stock head gasket and stock rockers with trunnion upgrade. Wanting 228r 112LSA cam kit.

http://www.texas-speed.com/p-5007-te...ls1ls2ls6.aspx

SELECTED OPTIONS:
  • 228R, .600"/.600", 112 LSA
  • 7.400" Texas Speed Hardened Chromoly Pushrods
  • TSP .660" Dual Spring Kit w/ Integrated One-Piece Seat & Seal, Titanium Retainers, PAC Springs #199-ISSPACPOL660SpringKit
Note: The default option will use our PRC integrated one-piece seat and seal that simply pushes in place. Our integrated seat and seal will make your installation much easier because it is virtually impossible to install it incorrectly! You can choose either kit for no additional charge.

Thanks!!!

The bold print does NOT refer to valve seats, but SPRING seats. Just a heads up...

Thank you, yea I knew that not sure why I typed valve.. but I can't make phone calls because of my work and I tried to send them a message on their web site for confirmation and haven't heard back so just wanted to get someone more knowledgable to eyeball this before I pull the trigger. So cool, assuming it's good, will be ordering. Thanks!!
