Default Replace valve springs with seals?

I'm almost finished my restoration of my 91 2 door.

Now to do the oil issues. As in rear main seal and new valve seals. Figured since i have the springs off maybe id replace them or is that some what redundant? It has 310k km almost 200k miles.

Can anyone comment on if that's a good idea or just a waste of money.

Thanks.

If it's easy enough for you to do them I'd say go for it. I mean why not?

I mean ya you could do them later on even once everything is up and running anyway, but if you have the time and effort to put into it why not?
