Duplicating a bike setup

I have an existing bike that is setup very well for me.

I am building a new bike using the components from the old one and am trying to preserve that setup as much as possible.

Things I've measured:

1) Rear of saddle to split in stem (where the face plate bolts on) -- I'll be using the same bars and shifters (to measure reach)
2) Nose of saddle to center of BB (horizontally -- ie, setup of saddle setback relative to center of BB)
3) Saddle height from BB along seat tube
4) Saddle tilt
5) Saddle to bar drop

The 2 frames have different geometries, so this probably won't work, but I figure it's worth a shot.

Am I missing anything?

Thanks,
Bob
