Metro valves: common size?

Had a quick question: ordering a set of replacement exhaust valves and I located a set of stainless steel. Vendor says they are good for 89-94
Metro 3cyl. My car is a 98 3 cyllinder which I guess has injection, but it's pretty much the same engine, right? Anyone know if exhaust valves are of a standard size across the years?

I am 99% sure they are the same. I don't have a 96+ head laying around to check with but they should work.

Thanks for the response. I sure would like to nail it down to a 100%. Got 60$ (delivered) riding on these three silly valves.
