Kimo05,

You should chat with your manufacturers. A lot of manufacturers like to make custom worm gears as a set in which you call up the tooth clearance. Either the manufacturer makes both pieces, or you supply the off-the-shelf worm you intend to use.

They can also tell you what standard they like to follow.
