Should it be mounted close, like 1/4", to the crank?

I run a 7 quart pan with 6 quarts in it but haven't used a tray since 2009. I also use a scraper even though I've been told they are a waste of time. I had already made it so it became one of those "It can't hurt" items.

You did the right thing with the scraper, it take time to fab a good one. There is a company in Fla that makes very good ones. As far as kick outs they help on passenger side. Depth put the deepest biggest box you can. Often over look is the shape of the pick ups. Moroso has a small box style pick up that is very good, biggest thing about your pick up is to make sure it is not just sucking a hole in the pump and oil is not getting into pump.
