12cm is maximum. People have been doing 5cm to 12cm channelings.
Everything gets a bit more difficult in each cm you do.

As Ollie said;
12cm is the height of the chassis
5cm is the height of the sills, weld floors in on top of sills.
I believe that after 5cm +/- clearance in the engine compartment, alternator, oil breather and original air filter housing, become a problem. Of course all these things can be modified and relocated.
Next the pedals (brake, clutch and accelerator) need to be raised up.
Good luck with the build!
