piston style lift pump spacer specs?

Hey guys.Im wanting to upgrade to the piston lift pump,I was just planning on building my own spacer out of some 6061.Looks like the gaskets for an old school small block chevys mech. fuel pump will work for my gaskets.I was hoping somone could tell me what the thickness of the spacer we use for this pump mod is.

I know the spacers dont cost much.But this is my game a I play with the wife.She gets mad at me when I wanna put money into hop ups on my truck...so I leverage her by saying,hey at least im not buying this piece or this piece im actually building these parts myself no money spent just time for custom building. hehe plus I just get a kick out of building ****

So anyone got specs for the thickness of this spacer?

Thanks a bunch, MIke.

The SBC fuel pump gaskets work just fine.
