Anyone have additional thoughts on the matter?

You are supposed to check the clearance before the install. They are machined tight. They are beneficial to us due to the fact that our oil pumps run straight off the crank. Any vibration or harmonics you can remove from the oil pump gears is a positive.

That's the issue. He checked the clearance. It was tight. Then installation was a PITA.

Think I had about 0.0005" clearance. Warmed mine up in the oven at 150F for 30 minutes. Torquing it was a PITA!
