Going through the cylinder head on 302 (six),
Noticed it did not have any valve seals,
Is a good to install them or not?

Original equipment 302 (and 228, 248 & 270) had a small rubber ring (described as "Intake Valve Oil Seal") installed on the intake valves only. GM Part number 2194132. Fel-Pro SS5112 seal set is a replacement. There may be 16 in the Fel-Pro box.
