Default Template for a/c plenum in firewall?

I've seen the question posted here before, but never saw an answer posted... I'm changing over from non-air to a factory a/c setup in my '71. I'd like to have a template to cut/enlarge the hole for the a/c plenum in my firewall if one exists. The firewall insulation does not provide enough of an exact measurement to trust cutting my firewall. If there is anyone in the Dallas area that has a bare firewall I could measure, I'd be happy to do that and make a template from yours. Any stripped wrecks with a missing front end? Let me know what you have, please!

It wouldn't be a bad thing if I could also see a bare non-a/c car as well to make some comparison measurements... I don't have my engine and stuff pulled yet.
