FOR THE REST WHO MADE COMMENTS IT WOULD BE NICE IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION ASKED TO JUST NOT COMMENT.
THANKS FOR ALL THE NONE HELP

Please do not allow yourself to be baited by trolls. This will only result in an infraction for you as well as them once things escalate to a pissin contest..
I will say that I would have answered you differently had you stated what your intentions were. Since you aren't just cutting a 73-87 from SWB to LWB none of the articles in FAQ will give you the dimensions you need. What it will show you is the preferred method of cutting and splicing a frame.
Some feel a straight cut or angle cut is adequate. I personally prefer the additional work area created by a step notch style splice. That would be further strengthened by a backing plate that is plug welded through holes as well as perimeter welded too.
