    Oil pump pickup question

     



    Is there a rule of thumb as to how close the oil pump pickup should be from the bottom of the pan?

    3 millimeters? 3 inches?

    ~AND~

    Is there a difference between stock and hi-perf recommended distances?

    Thanks......

    I run mine about 1/4" off the bottom of the pan
