Optimal BBQ plate height?

Am making some modifications to my camping/backyard fire bucket (open fire, not the turbo potbelly stove) and one of the things I'm doing is lowering the sides and BBQ plate mounts.
It gets hot-ish enough-ish mostly, but sometimes it takes a biiiiit long to cook those snags.

Just wondering what people think is a good distance between fire and plate?

At a glance I'm thinking about.......330mm.....?

That's only lowering it by about 100mm but sometimes that can make all the difference
