Hi Mike,
948's from the factory normally had no seats in the heads, just flame
hardened cast iron. Sound like the right time to put in hard seats, hard
valves and turn it into an unleaded head, or get a 1098 head and do the
same. David Anton at A.P.T. has all the goodies to do this job,
including just about any size valve.
