Default 49 woodie tracking

I have a rod 49 woodie with fat man front end and Ford 8 inch rear. The car came with 2 inch spacers on the rear hubs. Took the 8 inch out to fix a leaking gasket and mounted the rear wheels without the spacers. The track measures the same on the front and the rear as measured with the tires. With the 2 inch spacers on the track would be 4 inches wider on the rear than the front. Measured the distance from the tire to the top of the fender on each side as 4 inches without the spacers.

How is the track supposed to be set up front vs rear?
