Help! GP Matt Chapman 33% Eagle

I am trying to determine if the wing and stab from the "GP Matt Champan 33% CAP 580" will fit the fuselage of the "GP Matt Chapman 33% Eagle". Has anyone attempted to plug the "old" wings and Stab to the "new" fuselage?

Alternatively, if someone has a 33% Eagle could you take some very precise measurements of the wing root. What I need to know are:

For the main wing:
1) The diameter of the alignment pins.
2) The distance between the alignment pins (centre to centre)
3) The distance between the centre of the front alignment pin to the centre of the wing joiner.
4) The distance between the centre of the rear alignment pin to the centre of the wing joiner. (#3 and #4 together should give a good idea of the offset of the joiner) . I already know that the diameter of the joiner is 1.5 inches.
5) The location of the wing bolt relative to the front alignment pin.

For the stab:
1) The distance between the 2 stab joiners (center to centre)

Another modeler and I are trying to fit the new Matt Chapman Fuselage to old sets of wings and stab.

Any help that you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks
