Regarding the valve stem seals, I haven't really taken a close look or a close read on the subject, but can the valve stems seals work on the exhaust side of the '90 cylinder heads? Can they be replaced without removing the heads? I've assembled some SBC heads in the past. Is there a substantial difference in the placement of the seals, or do they just slip over the valve stem, replace the springs and retainers?
