Oil pump specs please....
Okay following along with my loss of oil pump drive, i have dissassembled the oil pump and other than some wear on the gears there was nothing wrong with the pump. So......
I have assembled the pump again but had to make a couple gaskets for the pump. The only one that had me worried was the gasket for the plate. If the gasket is too thick I'd have too much clearance between the gears and the plate.
Long story short, I plastiguaged the assembly and got a clearance of .005" and torqued the plate to 20 foot pounds.
Can anyone confirm this is okay with an overhaul manual ???

Shaune, 
For the pressure relief valve, spring, and plug, tighten the plug to 33-38 foot-pounds torque.
The retaining screws for the oil pump cover to 12-15 foot-pounds of torque. Then rotate the pump shaft by hand to make sure it turns freely.
The lockwashers & nuts on the pump mounting flange get torqued to 30-35 foot pounds.
I hope that's what you needed.
