how to repair a valve seat on a 1984 tecumseh enduro 16hp ohv?

what is the sequence of steps to repair the valve seat and torque specs to put it back together
Andy, August 2008
there are no torque settings for a seat!its either shrunk in using liquid nitrogen or the whole head is heated up(risky).its what is known in engineering as an interfearance fit.get it wrong and the heads a paperweight.not to mention compound seat angle cutters and seat relief.not a diy job.tools alone run into tripple figures.
