Are there actual dimensions followed for the GT roll bars installed in the GT cars?

Looking at this picture it looks like the side bars are longer and mounted further ahead on the longs and lower at the hoop than other pictures I have seen.

It could just be the angle of the picture as well?

Reason for asking is I have a friend that bought a 22 foot length tube for me which is too long for me to transport. He is going to cut the tube to fit in my truck, without wasting too much material how long should we rough cut the side pieces?

Ideally how far up on the hoop from the longs should they be attached?

Same question for the bars that attach to the inside of the hoop up top and to the rear firewall. It seems in pictures there are attached in multiple places and angles.
