Judy Gibson's Generic Toe-Up pattern has guesstimate (Chart 2) as to where to start the gusset increases, but it's never worked very well for the row gauge I get...

I'm taking my book this week! Hope you are able to get your length figured out because that toe is looking good :) I love the idea of getting the sock book spiral bound!

Then take the length of the finished sock and multiply by your row gauge, subtract the heel rows, and that should give you the place to start your heel. Or... look again at the chart on p. 14 -- I wouldn't be too surprised if the right length turned out to be the "toe to heel" length.
