Anyone know the depth of the valve cut outs in the original pistons fitted to Sprints?

I'm not sure if this helps - may have nothing to do with original Sprint pistons, but A-type pistons, as illustrated on p191 in Miles Wilkin's book, the cut outs are inlet 4.8mm and exhaust 4.4mm deep. This was measured off Hepolite 21093A pistons.
