I can't really help with the measurements as we run an auto but I had a similar problem on my '74 Challenger. The box section where the trans mount attaches to was pulling away from the unibody, the welds have given way probably due to engine torque and / or a few hard landings from big wheelstands. I welded it back on as best I could but still had to shim it under the trans mount pad to get it right, IIRC it was around 1/4". HTH's up
PS. My aftermarket K member also lowered the engine as my 2 1/4" headers will attest too grin
