Starting with no clearances makes things more difficult. Starting with the biggest shim is not a good idea as that will guarantee no clearance. You have two ways to proceed, either measure all the shims that are fitted now then decrease the size of the shim by the maximum clearance. You may end up doing this several times before you get a reading.
Alternatively fit the smallest shim or shims that just stand proud of the valve spring top collar. This should guarantee a clearance (even though it may be massive) and so you should be able to do the re shimming in one go.
As for the valve seats they should last equally as long using unleaded as they did with 4star. They were always burning out valves and dropping seats when we had better fuel.
