This actually is a good solution, IMO. You raise the engine, fit the rack. So now you raised the center of gravity, right, so how is that good? Well, you drop the car lower around the engine. An engine is, lets say, 500#. A car is 3400#. So you raised 500# up two inches, now lets drop 2900# 2 inches since you have increases oil pan and header clearance with the lifted engine. Which will have a greater impact on the COG, 500# or 2900#?





Factory suspensions are designed around the frame to be at a given height - at that height the UCA's + LCA's are at angles that minimize unwanted caster/camber gain/loss, etc. - their "sweet spot". Dropping the frame - and those suspension points - can't have a positive effect on that.
