1.) 4" or 6".
2.) Three would be fine. Probably a lot easier to install that way too.
3.) Well, space is fine...2.5' is a little much, but better that than following the angle of the ceiling if these panels are going to be above the mix position.
4.) At least the height-related stuff, sure. You might want to look at adding more at the corners (ALL of them, including wall/ceiling & wall/floor corners), more on the back wall and changing your front wall panel out for a 4" or 6" bass trap.
