I am not familliar with the clearances for cam brgs on the 320/384 motors. We manufacture about 30 different cam bearing sets for US cars '34-'70 and most have clearances in the .003-.004 range, nothing has .001.

I am wondering where you got the spec of .001?? It would seem to me that a 320/384 with a cmashaft longer than most other engines would have a runout greater tatn most other engines necessitating generous clearance.
