Re: head mounted stroker waterpump impeller clearance?

You will get a small loss of pump efficiency due to the increased clearance (0.2 mm is about 0.008"). Given that this is not a high pressure pump the impact should be negligible. Using a thinner gasket would restore the proper clearance. Either way you should be OK.
