Vavlve seat width

Starting from scratch with 2 new blocks I found and I need some recommendations on a beginning valve seat width.
 
I prefer a high narrow seat face on the intake for flow; a wide seat face for the exhaust to help dissipate heat.
Just about everyone replaces the seats with aftermarket (EZ Bore) seats, and drops them lower so that you can angle deck the block further to gain flow.
Remember, WKA is one angle (30* IN, 45* EX.) Make light cuts and lap if you're unsure.
