Correct break size

I have a 71 challenger convertible 340 optioned as an R/T. Manual breaks and steering. I'm trying to replace the front break shoes but I'm having a problem with the size, I looked on rockauto and called local auto parts store, they show a 10 1/2 x 2 1/2, and an 11 x 2 1/2 also an 11 x 3. However my break shoes measure 12 1/2 x 3. I don't know if someone used the wrong breaks in the past or there is some special configuration. Any info would be appreciated
