Pretty certain it's 60ft from foul line to the head pin.

"The alley or lane is 60 feet long from the foul line (at the player's end) to the center of the head (first) pin at the other end. The total length from the foul line to the end of the pin deck (the area under the pins) is 62 feet 10 and 3/16 inches long.":) :)

Hey, while you're at it, who knows how much space is in between the pins? Like what is the distance from the head pin to the 2 and 3 pins? Or how far apart are say the 9 and 10 pins?

I think they are 8.5" wide. I'm not 100% though.

Roughly.... 8.595" max http://www.ebonite.com/techcenter/RandD_detail.php?PRKey=263
Basically twelve inches center to center.
Pins, 15 insches tall, circumference of 15 inches. Approx diameter of 4 11/16 inches. Weight must be between 3lbs 6oz and 3lbs 10oz, the weight variance must not exceed 4oz between any of the pins in the set. Each pin has two inner hollow area refered to as voids... giving it a topple of 9 degrees.. this is angle the pin must reach before it can fall over.
