Need some opinions please....

I just got my new oil pump and pickup for my 1989 454 tbi. It has the 9" deep oil pan as an fyi. I got the Melling 77HV pump and the recommended 241s pickup. My problem is, the stock pickup screen is about .5" off the bottom of the pan. The new screen is 1.5" shorter! If I try and get it to the same height off the bottom of the pan the screen is no longer parrallel with the bottom of the pan. Has anyone else had this or seen this? If so, anyone got any suggestions?
