How do you know the length you have to use on a V-tail?
I already know the angle with the horizontal and the airfoil to use.

Depends on how much lateral stability and controlability you want to achieve.
You probably want to base your calculations on surface area, not just length.
I'm curious on how you got a number for the angle though.

It was based on simulations on solidworks but we are struggling with finding the correct surface area to use

Just keep trying until it doesn't crash, or at least until it isn't nose down. That's what Boeing does, it's science.
