clearance on a journal if we are trying to maintain oil pressure."...

With respect to our type engines, Only an idiot engine builder would tell you
that!
There are two shops in all of Atlanta that I will deal with. The rest could
screw up a 2 bolt
thermostat gasket!
Proper clearances are one of the many keys to long engine life and endurance
under tough
circumstances.
Good engine builders charge alot for their skills, bad engine builders may
still charge you
alot for their ignorance. If you are really lucky, and know who you are
dealing with,
you get what you pay for!
