Default Tamiya chassis frame rail dimensions?

I was wondering if anyone could give me some dimensions of the Tamiya chassis frame rails. I would like to know the height of the c-channel, and/or the height between the webs, taken from the inside of the rail. Also, if possible, the thickness of the web itself. Thanks in advance!

Thanks Steve! Got a couple blank frame rails coming from PMD, for my Wedico and I was just wondering how they compared to Tamiya frame rails. I don't know if the blanks that Ric sells for the Wedicos are the same that he sells for the Tamiyas too. This way I'll know, when they arrive.
