Re: problems with b series oil pump (whitey bulger)
have you had your min bearings align bored? if so you put added stress on the oil pump because it moved the crank shaft up further.

Its a harmonic damper that reduces crankshaft vibrations.

You want to avoid align boring as it can throw the oil pump gears out of proper alignment
