I'm sure it could happen but I have never heard of it. But I'm sorta out of the loop in my old age...

I've ask the techs at the dealership and they have never heard of it. Just seeing if anyone else has and what they did to fix it.

Did you remember to put the spring back inside the shoe? What kind of shoes are you using?

I'm spitballing a little here but:
  1. Any "spare parts" when you were done assembling and installing the new cam plate?
  2. Were all bolts torqued properly during install?
  3. What is your idle oil pressure with the new pump assembly installed?
