I don't have any measurements handy, but I can tell you that there are actually two different kinds of stretch head bolt. The ones I took off my van had very thick spacers under the heads. The ones I put on were somewhat shorter and had washers but no spacers. I don't see how this would make a difference in actual usage, though.
