Default anyone have their front shock off?

I need a huge favor with a couple measurements..

-Width of shock bushing, or simply the inside space of the fork.
-Fork bolt hole center to the top fork edge
-Fork bolt hole center to the top of the spring perch, ie total height. (not including studs)

Basically, or obviously, I am trying to find a reasonable match. I'd like to use the 8041's. If it can work with a Civic setup then all I will need is a 3 bolt perch.

I just need eyeing it your best with a tape. of course it can't really be done too well on the car, but I will take what I can get. I never see these cars at work anymore to do myself. Given I will be using a koni race setup, there is room to not be perfect, I only to compare stock for stock.

Ok, I got some eg measurements today. Can anyone tell me how EF's compare? The shock seems a bit long, and the straight edge on one side of the fork is odd.

-fork/shock bushing width = 2"
-fork bolt center to fork top height = 7 15/16's
-fork bolt center to top spring perch height (off the car, assembled, uncompressed) = 23 15/16's
