When you z the frame motor to crossmember clearence doesn't change since they both move up in this case motor is in same spot and crossmember came up, but new motor mount hats will fix that some oil pan clearencing you definatly have the skills to do it, maybe a dry sump setup just to have it and clear the crossmember?

By the way very nice work I like the rack mounting also good idea I am thinking of going to rack and pinion on my 97 but I just dont want to add to the list of things to do
