Default Factory width 69 Camaro rear axle measurements please...

I am looking for the factory measurements from the wheel mounting surface to the wheel mounting surface. I have a 69 Camaro, but when I bought it, the rear was cut out and in the process to become a drag car. I am slowly putting it back together with more of a mini tubbed street car in mind. I purchased a 12 bolt that has been narrowed down to 53.5" WMS to WMS. I am hoping it is not going to be too narrow. I have done a search and come up with measurements that range from 54" all the way to 60"... Can someone give me an exact number? Thank you!

Jason

backing plate flange to backing plate flange is 54 1/2"
axle brake mounting flange to axle brake mounting flange is 60"
center perch to center perch is 45"

don't freek out about the size you have, just make it up with the back spacing. Should equate to a killer dish on a 12 inch rim.
