Default gundrill sharpening

Lately, I've bought a number of gundrills off ebay. I've got my lathe
all set up for this operation and decided to have several sizes on
hand.

Anyway, I seen this shapening fixtu http://tinyurl.com/jwumkds

My T&C grinder can duplicate this fixture. All I need is the correct
angles. Long shot, anybody know them? Any suggestion on how to measure
a tiny plane for compound angles on the end of a drill?

Gundrilling is my life these days.

This should help, N-8 is the standard grind:
