Re: height on a stock S10
skymangs tall mounts put the running boards even with the bottom of the frame, which is still a bit of a "channel" because an s10 body sits up off the frame about 3 inches.
it will depend on the suspension you have on the truck too, the highrider Z85 has 3 leaf (+ overload) and heavy duty coils and is 1.5 inches higher than a stock S10, and a ZQ8 has 1.5" lowered springs compared to a stock s10. and to make it more complicated, there are several different front spring rates for 2.0 2.5 and 2.2 4 bangers, 2.8 6 cylinders, and 4.3 6 cylinders.
but a good visual is the old advanced design engineering site (now gone) who made one of the first swap kits for an S10 in the 90s. their mount kit also sets the running boards up level with the bottom of the frame. they used to have lots of swap pictures but this is the only one I found right off. it is with an LT1/4l60e
