Thanks for the help on the stem lengths.  Still not getting any joy with the 
measure widths.  I suspect that something else is conflicting and will have to 
investigate further.

Thanks again!

You could try:

\version "2.18.2"

\score {
  \relative c' {
      \repeat unfold 8 c'8
      \newSpacingSection
        \override Score.SpacingSpanner #'base-shortest-duration =
        #(ly:make-moment 1 2)
      R1
      \newSpacingSection
      \repeat unfold 8 c'8
  }
  \layout { ragged-right = ##f }
}

Cheers,
  Harm
