Default head mods for bd15 and bd16

when fitting a bd15 exhaust and bd16 inlet cams
does the head need to be fitted?
if so in what way?
i've heard of lowered valve seats but dont know what that is
any details would be good to tell the guy thats doin it

The head needs to be modded for double valve springs.

Its the pistons that need to be modded for the cams.

as he's the 1 that'll be dealing with it
but as its the valve springs that need the mods it dont matter anyhow
as it'll be using reyland single springs
