Default Rear Brake Drawings & Dimensions

Does anyone know where I could find a technical drawing and/or dimensions for the rear brakes on a C3 Vette? I am primarily looking for the exact distance between where the brake flange bolts to the trailing arm and the face of the axle where the rotor seats.

As a long time C3 owner, I have acquired a good selection brake parts. I have am now starting on a 12 bolt for my '68 Camaro and understand that a 12 bolt housing can be modified with GM big car housing ends to accept C3 brake parts, but I don't know the spacing to do such.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Have you looked in Noland Adams 63-67 Restoration Guide. It's the only publication I know that has any Engineering Drawings at all. I doubt if it's there, but it could be.
Would someone like Van Steel, who sets up rotor run-out be able to measure that for you? Worth a call?
