Raymond Belanger is probably the best source.
Here is his Web site.

It took me some time to find his site and I've not searched for the trunk stripe data but several sources reference to his site for the measurements.   The Osborn Assembly (reprints) manuals also probably have the measurements.

UPDATE, took another few minutes but found it. https://1970mach1.homestead.com/TrunksStripeslettersdimensions.html

Not certain what plant your car was built at if there is a difference but I don't current have a 70 Mach I nor have access at the moment to one either.

Also checked my files and could not find where that information/measurements has been posted in the past on any of the Mustang forums I have belonged to or watch. Another source for some similar details would be to look or post the request at the 428 Cobra Jet Registry forum and let the members or Scott help. Does look like the 70 Mach I site does have some of the measurements from hopefully an unrestored example.  I do see that you have already posted a request there though.

I used this layout and it looks OEM.  As I remember, the measurements were taken from an original paint car.
