Default need height of windshield opening on '67 mustang

I removed the cowl and replaced the drains on my '67, but neglected to measure the height of the windshield opening before I did so. I think it should be fine the way it is, but would like to be sure so ... if anyone has an exact measurement for me, I would appreciate it.

Hmmm… If you line up the pinchweld, I don't see how you could go wrong.

It's not that critical. If a little sticks up just trim it down they are a bit oversize anyway so you have plenty to work with.

Are you doing the drivers side? Is it that you are worried about the wiper mounting?

Use your windshield as a reference. Have a couple of friends help you hold it in the opening and check the gap all around. It should be enough to handle the thickness of the gasket where it separates the glass from the flange.
