I was looking after this just the other day. In the Shelby GT40 book, the total stripe width (including space) is the same width as the gap in the rear clip for the carb trumpets. For me, that's somewhere around 13.5 inches. I was leaning more towards the width of the rear engine vent which is close to 16 inches. Then you get into the decision whether or not to extend the stripes into the engine bay...
