My apologies to all 140-160

It finally dawned on me why we're beating this to death and (on my part at least) seemingly getting nowhere. I went back and re-read my original post, and it was poorly written, to say the least. What I had in mind was what the clearance might be IF repeat IF something went wrong... like a stripped timing gear, for instance. But I didn't make that part of the question, I suppose because (as was pointed out) it's fairly obvious that you can't make the valves run into the pistons with what amounts to a stock lower end on a properly functioning B20, almost regardless of what you've done to the head. And when the answers started coming back that stated as much, I just didn't realize that I was on a differenct page from the rest of you guys. Again, my bad... sorry.
