Looks a bit low to me,sump to ground clearance needs to be around 100mm

if ur worried, add about a inch to your engine mounts and leave te gearbox mounts alone, that will raise the front and level itout, and aso icrease ur ground clearance, mabye add a little extra to ur O/S mount to level it the otherway

Make the mounts longer or add a spacer to the chassis.

How far off the ground is the sump? Make sure the wheels are on it too (something I wouldn't do then I'd have the engine 3ft off the ground once the wheels are on!)

3Ft sound a bit high to me
Or am I missing something???
