How does Steve Coppock group the Ford Flathead cylinder heads he compares?

Steve has five heads on the table. He groups them as an early 21-stud head, which had the water pumps on the front of the head; two 24-stud heads, which he calls Series 2 or Type 2; and 8BA-style heads, which he gives as 1949 to 1953, adding that there were truck engines in 1948.
