I've had rear sumps on all of mine, but have been told fronts are fine, but if you have concerns and will be launching it skyward i'd go for the cheap insurance of a new rear sump pump and pan. better to be safe than have a blown motor.

Like rob said, It will work and prolly will not have a problem with it i ran one on my old engine in my 77 with about 2" of home made lift on the front it hit the axle one time when i came off a hill sideways with 3' of air and landed on the wall and it also buckled my fender a good bit in it aswell so with 6" you should be fine
