Shimano 600EX BB spindle length?

Sheldon Brown doesn't list the model separately but in the Ultegra section says 113 mm for 6/7 speed doubles, no spec for the triple. Velobase says 116 mm for the English BB-6207 and 119 for Italian, but no spec for the triple. What is right?

Last 6206 I mounted used a 118 asymmetrical spindle. A modern 121 symmetrical would work jsut as well.

Thanks for the replies. 116 for the double and 121.5 for the triple look to be right. Not the first instance of inaccurate data I've seen on Sheldon's website but still a great resource for information.
