Yes.
If you've never moved an engine back, you have no idea what a nightmare it can be. New firewall, move the seat back, move the steering back, move the pedals back, re-engineer the rollcage, yada, yada, yada, but if you're gonna do it anyway, I might consider using front and mid motor plates tied to the frame.

Order specs from SFI for frame and cage building instructions, $38.00....
SFI Spec 25.5C Full Bodied Car Stock or Modified/OEM Floorpan and Firewall with OEM Frame or Uni-Body Construction – 7.50 to 8.49 Seconds; 3,600 lbs. Maximum

Overkill..... 0.188" (3/16") will be plenty.
Again, 1/4" is overkill. This thing will be heavy as an Army tank.
