The RB30 is about 1 inch taller then the RB25. I know using our mounts will allow for the taller engine. We have about 3 inches from the top of the motor to the strutbar. Also we are running the Greddy intake.

I am not sure about using the stock crossmember, since we do not use it. The RB30 can take the RB20 or RB25 motor mounts. All that is needed is to change out the mounts that come off the block to what ever you want to use.

Heres a pic of how low our motor sits.
