I have no idea what they are as I can't find any of those numbers in my Model A/AA book.

Gee, could it be that KRW actually made some tools for something other than A's and AA's? They even got into marine conversions for flathead V8's by 1941.

I still have that KRW box with the 6050-B, unused and covered in cosmoline. The tool is for fly cutting the valve clearance area on V8 heads, but I never can remember which way it goes: old heads on later blocks or later heads on earlier blocks... The box is painted gray, and lettering is stenciled - could be something in the Navy inventory. Very interesting little boat anchor
