Default C-beam allignment

I had these numbers before and lost them. My search found nothing even though I know it has been discussed in the past several times.
I need the rough side/side measurments for the c-beam at the trans before I tourqe everything back down. Is there a measurment above the c-beam to floorpan or just make sure it is parrallel with the c-beam angle? Thank's

From BillB's install of beam-plates:

ALIGN DRIVELINE COMPONENTS: Take the following measurements directly above and to the right of the Propeller shaft front yolk universal joint. To ensure proper alignment of the driveline, a clearance of 45 mm +/- 6mm (1.77 in. +/- 0.236 in.) must be maintained between the top of the support to the underbody and a clearance of 28 mm+/-6 mm (1.1 in. +/- 0.236 in.) from the right side (passenger side of vehicle) of the support to the side wall.
