What year flathead ?? Most all flatheads I’ve been into from the mid to late 30’s on up to around 1950 or 51 had hard seats. I’ve seen some of the 8ba engines that were produced toward the end of the flathead era having the seats ground right into in the block , same for some of the early production flatheads in 32-33.
