That's why you have to get the clearances right for the engine you are building. If you put the clearances to loose on the bottom end of a Chevy, you will starve the cam and lifter area. If you think about it, the cam bearing to cam clearances are pretty slim, on either engine type, but the Chevy will die on top if the bottom is not right. That's why when someone asked if 20 lbs is ok, I'm thinking, not.
Or, just switch to a Blue Oval, and forget the silly chebbie problems!!!!!!!!!
