Default Tbird pickup placemant

Hi, I'm palnning on doing a wormoth project this summer. Its going to be a crossbreed between P bass and thunderbird. P body and neck in mahogany and Lindy Fralin bassbuckers (please don't fry me for this...). Hopefully it'll end up looking like a fender type bass with Thunderbirdish sound

Can anyone please help me with mesurements for pickup placing? I need to know the distance from the bridge to the centre of both pickups. And maybe from the 12th fret to both pickups

Though pickup placement does affect a bass or guitars sound. Its not so critical that you need precise measurements by any means. You can look at a picture of the type instrument whose sound you want to emulate and get it close enough by eye balling em.
