Maybe stating the obvious but the answer is as far as you can!
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

That would depend on your bell housing.
I've got both so can take accurate measures if your using an alloy bell housing.

The thing that hits first is the starter bulge on the alloy housing.
The block already has 3 mounting holes either side that conveniently match up with the chassis mount position
