at this time mykirban regulator is touching my egr valve and a 1inch spacer would fix this problem.

Negative. I had some solid mounts that jacked the engine up 1/2", and with only that I still had to get em back out and put stock height mounts in. PITA. I had the same problem with my Kirban, just take a dremel or file to the lip that's touching the EGR and slowly grind/check/grind/check until it fits. Worked fine for me.
