thanks man. from time to time, you will hear of people having the oil pump nut falling off. They're reversed threaded so it SHOULDN'T happen, but weird ---- happens. VAC Motorsports makes a race pump that is basically a stock pump with an inseparable nut and such. The high RPM can tend to shock the nut off. It sucks when it happens because the gear usually falls off and well... you get the idea.

Weld 'er and forget 'er
