ANY Cam could have caused an oil pump problem (if it really was the cams fault). You can't just blame it on a thunder cam

I'm the one whose oil pump failed. As mentioned above, it had nothing to do with anything, except the fact some dust/dirt etc got in and the relief valve stuck open, causing the pump to fail.

if you have the cash, put a pump in. if not, you should be ok, but look at me, i wasn't.
