If you can find specs for that bike that say otherwise, then of course go with the published specs. But I'd be really surprised if the correct chainline for that bike isn't the standard mountain triple which is 47.5-50mm. Especially a Giant, from the early 90s.
Thanks, I will take another measurement.
