Stanley Model 740 Valve Setting

What are the maximum port openings and leads in the Stanley Model 740 engine at (factory) hookup? I have the 735 figures from Dealer's Bulletin #46 (May 22, 1918), but am building an engine with scaled 740 valve gear and can't find the valve setting data.

0.205" max inlet opening (front port) at full gear. Turns out it was in the Schick blueprints after all, but not marked well-enough for me to notice without careful study! Perhaps the info will be useful to others too...
