That DLS pan looks nice!! Kinda pricey......but your get what you pay for.
The pickup needs to be 1/4" off the bottom of the pan in order to keep from sucking air when the oil sloshes forward or rearward during braking or acceleration. A deeper pan requires a longer pickup.
If you're wondering what the oil in your pan is doing............here is a tip:
Fill the pan with water and have a buddy drive you around. Have him stand on the brakes and you watch the water. You can rotate the pan to simulate accel, braking, or cornering. Might want to bring some towels!!!

Thanks for the lesson
