Use a standard pump with standard clearances. You'll be glad you did. All an oil pump has to do is provide 10 psi per 1,000 rpm, which is easily obtainable with standard bearing clearances. More volume means lost power to the flywheel and extra load on the oil pump/distributor drive gear. So don't fall into the trap of using a high-volume pump.
