I'm excited to see this and totally in at projected price point.
So far, no, but we haven't engine mounted it yet. According to my scans, it should all fit with some clearance. It's obviously less, but the Suby engine/mount setup doesn't typically allow for much movement downward. The engine mostly tips from one side and moves forward.

You may have missed the details I laid out in the OP. The level around the pickup increases because the pickup is in a smaller area than the spacer. So even though the pickup is higher from the bottom, the oil level becomes even deeper than that height. A benefit of this, is less likelihood of sucking up broken off pieces of silicone.
