Your oil pump gave out because of the bolts? Thats grounds catastrophic failure!

Which is why I'm getting an oil pressure gauge.

That is true. Still, it was May 21st, 2006 that I pulled the engine out of my car, so it has been 22 months and 9 days since my car went down. That was after only driving it for 13.5 months.
I guess I am still better off than a friend from church whose car (66 Nova ) has been in the shop 3 years now.
