Need help with valve seals

Nevermind, . The seals don't have bases to them.

The later heads do have the seal and the spring seat made together. You can't use that type with dual springs though.

Why not? Too crowded inside the spring?

I pulled the valve springs off and no surprise to me, the seals were not exactly "all the way" down. Some of them actually floated up on the valve stems. I took the springs off the new seals, slid them down the valve stems, hammered them down with a 3/8" drive deep socket, reinstalled the valve seal springs, then put the valve springs back on. I gotta say tho, it was a much easier process with all the car club guys BS'ing and helping me out. Only time will tell if my oil consumption issue is over. I just hope that the next time I check the oil, it won't be lower than what it was a week earlier.
