Project Started! Is my frame bent?

Started my project on my 68 shorted c10. Going to run full porterbuilt stage 3, 6.2ls3 4l75e drive train, Patina body. Same as everybody it seems right now... I have the truck all torn down to the frame and was getting ready to get sandblasted but noticed the frame looks a little tweaked. The truck doesnt show any signs of being in a major wreck but does have some bad body work done where it looks like it was dented in the back rear. (only downfall of the truck ) Also the firewall has separated from the cab floor on the passenger side. I have measure in a X pattern in the same spot and it is within a 1/8th of a inch. When I say it looks tweaked it looks like the back driver is sitting higher than the passenger. I will say that my jack stands are not perfectly level and it can be straighten by pick up on it. Is this normal? With porter built on the way I want to make damn sure its a straight frame before I go taking out cross members and installing.
