JC and JA Wheel Offset dimensions

Has anyone measured the offset dimension of these two wheels? "Backspace" dimension of each would be okay, too.

I know it's been discussed before, but I tried a search and came up empty. Thanks.

I think the answer to my question will be "no" but I'd like to ask the forum if there were any aluminum 1x4 intakes outfitted by the factory on Firebird or GTO 400s? If so, part numbers please.

Whoops. It's not an N in the VIN, it's a U, which was Lordstown, so that's ok.
