Valance height

[311 Portugal]

Good morning guys, can anyone please give me the height of the front valance from the ground or the minimum height that is sensible to run? I know it’s subjective but I have had a new front end built and we think it’s too low, doesn’t help that the body is off the chassis at the moment

Sorry, I actually need two heights please.
Bottom of valance to ground
Top of front wheel arch to ground
Or sill (rocker I think) height

Exactly. Dropping the front end via springs drop the valence height and oil pan clearance proportionately.

With the deeper aluminum pan, minus 1.75 inches via springs, resulting in 6.5 inches valence height is probably the lowest you'd want to go.

The pan would then be at around 3 inches clearance.

Requested heights (on my vehicle) Not sure if my springs are stock or aftermarket. My tire Size is 195/65/14.

Top of wheel arch to ground is 24.25”

Ground to sill is 6.5“ I measured between the two bolts at the lowest part of the sill. The body of the tape measure is 3.0 “
