What is the accepted minimum distance between the bottom of a built in
micro to the top of the range cooking surface below?

ZERO. NADA. ZIP. POCHOSKI.

Never ever mount a microwave over a stove. Reasons: You are boiling a
big kettle of menudo on the burner. Now, you gonna stick your private
parts close to that boiling pot to put the marinara sauce in the
microwave and risk being a soprano the rest of your life?

Nonsense...... here's a link for you
