Fat Chance, what length fork will work?

I have a 93 Fat and am wondering how I can figure out if it is suspension corrected and how long a fork will work on it and where the limit is for what certainly will not (geometry, ridability).

Is it possible to measure it in some way or see it on the frame?
Will Manitou M1,2,3,4, TPC, Mag 20 and 21s, Sid 98 (60mm), Judy XC 50mm, SL 63, DH 80, Race (100?) work?

This particular specimen came with Manitou 3 but not sure if it was designed for it.

I remember calling and speaking with someone (Wendyll) in 93 and she said that Manitous have too wide a crown and may hit and damage the down tube, hence the warranty will be void if used.
