We are planning on using a Bailey pan and pump which will also allow us to drop the engine an inch closer the ground.

Thanks for the help!
Al... I just went out and measured mine. The floor of my trunk is 17.5" off the ground, and the bottom of my oil tank is 19.5" off the ground. The inlet for the pressure section of my oil pump is at 15.5" off the ground. So my tank is 4" above the pump... so you're even better at 5".

Glad to help out
