The most frequent used cylinders for a balance bar are the Girling and Wilwood, both are the same.
The template to make the holes can be seen here bellow, but that is when you use a balance bar with 63,5 mm [that is equal to the distance between the cylinders.
What I am afraid is that you make a bad selection of the cylinders.
You mention that you all ready have those ones.
Now be careful because the selection is very important and depends from your car and the components used on the build.
To bring a balance in the brake system you start with a balanced selection of the cylinders, than the fine adjustment you do with the balance bar.
I did made a excel sheet for the calculation, but it is in Spanish.
It looks like this:
All the calculations are related to the weight of the car, the weight trasfer, etc. etc.
Here is a picture where I explain the the Spanish guys how to do it.
As you can see there is needed some calculation to get it right.
