The reply to this outta be good.....! 41 miles huh? I think someone is drinking their own bath water, Ive seen oil pumps not centered right & they don't do that.
I think you mean cam plates.
What do cam plates look like when not center correctly? Sorry I've lead a sheltered life.. I've seen them get torn up when the crank runs out tho.. They start moving at the points where they bolt to the cases.
For 41 miles, It does look like the plate wasn't cleaned or the pump had a burr on the gerotor.
Did you check bolt torque on removal? How do you figure the stuff wasn't torqued correctly?
yep checked torque ......reason I know it wasn't centered was the rotor( gerotor Harley term) was broke.I have seen 2 before,not ones I did. There were pieces in it after it broke. Does it really matter...dealer did it. I fixed it. All I heard was one famous engine builder who uses fueling blame it on anodizing ....which is a laugh. He starts rumors to keep his cam /lifter business going .Both most of us won't use

That'll break em.. Not sure you can blame anodize on gerotor braking but that crap is pretty abrasive. Proper assembly and they should be OK.. Main thing I see about Fueling pumps is the feed side clearance is too high. IMO nothing wrong with stock of a TC. Now some M8s could use a little help. SnS did it right.

Correct me if im wrong, i have missed a bit but could it be an issue with improper install? That would make sense in that its kinda a luck of the draw issue with sumping. Could it be that the new cam plate, as well as allowing more flow, is finally installed properly? Anyway good luck bumpandrun, i really hope this issue gets ironed out soon.

I meant oil pump - the cam plate that stump & dumb has shown has issues beyond faulty materials like he wants people to believe or the fact that a HD tech installed it without proper bolt torque and the end result is what he has shown us! Ive explained it to him but I don't have the right color crayon for him to understand this apparently, if he thinks S&S guts in his cam chest are gonna stop his "sumpin" he`s got sumping wrong in his head.
But hey - He knows it all - why then even debate about anything cause in his mind hes right.. bwahahahahaha!

You’re wasting your breath..... instead of riding a knucklehead, stump & dumb IS a knuckehead!

so what was that bolt torque Ace? gerotor broke? yep misaligned oil pump or terrible Crank run out! so the dealer did this & you need to flame a builder who has seen more than you ever will & the anodizing was once a problem - not a rumor, you sure you aren't an S&S employee. I have never had a problem with any of fuelings stuff or Woods product for that matter. you are funny & entertaining - like when a little kid pulls his dads finger - you are the release of that finger pull. LMFAO there ignore that!
