Ive got a ported b16 head that already had a valve job done, would it require any additional work if i installed new valve stems? The head was used when i bought it but its still looks very fresh. I took out the valve stems and seals to have them replaced wit new parts. Any input would help thanks.

To be more specific, i originally had supertech valves. But im replacing them with oem itr intake valves. Not to sure about the exhaust side yet (oem ex valves are expensive).

Get a set of ferrea 6000 exhaust valves. They are like $140

new valves=new seals.

I'd try really hard to get in touch with the shop who did the work.
If a valve job was done, the same valves should be used IMO . You don't know for sure if the supertech and OEM valves will sit exactly the same on the fresh cut seat. You don't know if the angles have been changed on the actual valves. The valvestems installed height could have changed. Valvestem to valve guide clearance. All that could have changed by swapping valves.
I'm not saying this is happening for sure, but a possibility. Could be just fine But I wouldn't take a chance Myself. My 2 cents.

I still have the old valves, is there any way or method i can check them for straightness?

In most cases, lap in the new valves and you should be good.
