Yes thats true, i did manage to get it pulled apart and replaced the pump and drive shaft, the old pump had locked up which is what caused the failure. Broke the engine in and took it down the street. Runs good, sounds amazing. Only issue is i have some bearing work to do in the near future it sounds like

Sorry to hear about the oil pump failure, Josh. Glad to hear that you got it running again and you're getting decent oil pressure. It could have been catastrophic.
