Default measurement needed...66 hood

can someone measure their 66 hood for me,..

across the front (where the headlights are)
across the back (across the cowl)
and front to back...

thank you,

i do not have the car near by, and before i make any stupid decisions i want to check something,..

(thinking out loud...i have a chance to pic up a 68 mustang hood with turn signals,...the hood is in GREAT shape the frame is shot,...take it apart and try to skin a 66 frame with a gt350 scoop,...hmmmmmmm)

45.5 front side to side
52.5 front to back
48 rear side to side

all within about 1/4in or so..

you may have to cut a lil bit of the turn signal hood cause i beleive its wider than the 66 but it shouldnt be that herd to do i wouldnt think
