Heres a quote from Graham "Corky" bell's Four Stroke Performance Tuning book...
"The height of the oil pick-up above the floor of the sump must also be adjusted. If it is closer than 1/4in the oil flow into the engine will
be restricted; more than 3/8in and the engine will gulp air with G forces around 0.8. Remember when measuring to include the thickness of the sump
gasket."
