Subject: [CR]Correct length Campy rear hub axle?

Hello all, I have two Campagnolo (Nuovo) Record rear axles, in 129.2mm and 134mm total lengths, and I'm hoping that one is correct for my project.

Can someone possibly tell me the correct length axle needed for the following conditions?: -Approx. 1977 Campy N.Rec. rear road hub, large flange (double drilled by Schwinn ... what year are these?). -Zeus 2000 aluminum 5 speed freewheel, measuring 24.95mm in thickness (outside face to inside face), with a space of about 5.65mm between cogs (c-c). -1972 Italian road frameset, rear spacing rests at 121.7mm. -Campy N.R. double crankset (no date, 144bcd, if it matters)

Or, is there a known rule about using spacers to adjust how close the outermost freewheel cog sits in relation to the inside face of the dropout?

Thanks very much for the help ... as usual!

Ciao,
