See if you can find the information here:

http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com...esto/index.htm

For others, this is the site I frequently send people to, it has the original specifications for Chevy trucks up to 1970. This is information usually not shown in the Factory Assembly Manual or Shop Manual.
