Flathead valves

Guys,
In by assortment of bits n pieces, I have a set of 16 valves which I believe come from a Ford sidevalve V8. They are 4 7/8 long, the head is 1 1/2 dia, the belled stem end is 9/16 dia, there is a step on the stem 1 inch below the top of the head. Can you identify these, they are all identical and brand new, still greased up.

Cheers

Sounds like a set of 32-48 mushroom stem valves. Not much value except to the stocker guys. Most anybody running a flathead as a daily driver goes with the later style straight valve stem.
