My front shocks (King 2.5 bypasses) are mounted very similar to yours, but I was able to fit 12" shocks in. My straps are limiting travel to almost 12 1/2" at the bumps. When I get some longer straps, I "should" be able to get 13", maybe a tad more. Do those Fox shocks have longer bodies than the Kings?

you can run compressed air so you can drive to get them filled. Just make sure your comp doesn't puke water.
Lots of guys do it and thats not an argument I'm getting into now.

7" of exposed shaft sounds pretty good. I think your on the right track.
Take a look at the track bar, what Andy mentions is very true, the track bar can be a key item to holding you back. Since your running a 2Wd beam, you should be able to get a ton of droop outta her.
i actually may have hit the schraeder valve on a bumpstop, while it's compressed, now, it wont fully extend, if you pull it out it pulls back in, any chance i squirted out some oil? arent the air bumps kinda emulsion?
also, theyre only 2 tubes =)
7" of shaft is gonna shrink to 5-6" when we replace the coil isolators, and get it seated a little better, we were thinking 3" of down travel isnt very much, people allways talk about 60/40 40/60, but am confused =\.
as far as the trackbar, it was limiting uptravel due to brackets colliding, is there anything i should check about the trackbar for downtravel? i dont see anything colliding, joint-to-bracket wise at full droop (with shocks limiting)
the shocks are on, and theyre 10'ers, im stuck at 10 for a while pretty much, right?
