I have both; a long bubble on the car as well as a short bubble (finishes
about 6 inches from the back) that is probably going onto eBay soon, unless
there is some interest amongst the true enthusiasts.

No measurements should be needed, as the difference is quite obvious. 
On the long-bubble hood (bonnet), the bubble reaches all the way to the aft
end of the hood. 
In the more-rare early short-bubble hood, the bubble falls far short of the
rear of the hood.

I think all the TR4, TR4A, TR5, TR250 long-bubble hoods are the same, but
I'm no expert.
