Ok Here's The Story THAT I WAS GONNA ASK RON ABOUT, So About 6 Months Ago I Had Rp Motorsports Install My Engine, In The Process I Paid Them To Put A New Oil Pump On The Engine Before They Installed It.... My Engine Now Has Between 8000-9000 Miles.. Friday Night A Friend Of Mine And I Started To Do A Cam Swap On My Car. As We Pulled The Timing Cover Off We Noticed That The Oil Pump Was Stained Almost Black. And We Knew That They Don't Get That Dark That Quick.. So The Next Morning He Ran The Part Number On The Oil Pump And It's A 98 Pump Which Is The Same Year As My Car. Also I Remembered That There Is A Small Dent In The Side Of The Oil Pump Housing From It Falling Off My Table (part Of The Reason Why I Wanted A New One), And That Same Dent Is On The One On My Car. Ok I Could Go Many Ways With This... What Do Ya'll Think I Should Do?

So, let me do my math. The motor had 3500 miles in August 05, blew in Sept 05 but now has 8000-9000 as of 2 months ago... so did you put 5500-6500 miles on it in the month til you spun the rod bearing and decide to do a cam swap on a bad motor?

Hmmm, next excuse please.
