Wooden pallet info

[SuperDutyScaler]

I know I've seen them on here before but everything i try in the search function yields me nothing. Just got wood at the local AC Moore and im about to build a bunch for my 53' flatbed and almost finished F550 truck. Since a pallet is 48x40" that comes to 3"x2.5" in 1/16 if im correct? But the Tamiya semi is somehwere between 1/14 and 1/16 scale i read on here right? I cant find a 1/14 converter online so ill stick to 1/16 and make them 3x2.5", should come out fine i hope?

Thanks guys
