Ronnie,
just be aware of the gearstick position if you you move thengine forward, also watch out on the reverse light switch, its very close to one of the tranny tunnel uprights if you go too far forward.
on height of the engine it depends on what bonnet you,ll be putting on, my engine still leaves me about 10mm above the engine oil filler cap to the underside of the bonnet, tho my sump is a shortened one.
i used 10mm plate for the engine mount that bolts into the block, 5mm plate that sits ontop of the rubber engine mount & 2 pieces of 25mm box welded together to make the "leg".
good luck with your engine fitting
