i thought your engine broke because you shifted into 2nd gear on accident at like 80mph or something?

unorthadox says this is unrelated
but I would see why they would be biased. Seems honduhs had a similar problem. Check out this article on their page....

I suppose we could run a poll to find out, but perhaps it would be just as easy to ask the question here.
Has anyone besides QUANSUNG had an oil pump fail on their Maxima after installing an Unorthodox UDP?

They're screwing ya, buddy.
The 29-36 ft/lbs is correct, BUT you then torque the bolt another 60 degrees which means the bolt is torqueing down to 110-120 ft/lbs. The pulley bolt is HUGE and high grade. You don't specify a bolt like that unless you're torqueing it to well over 100 ft/lbs. Simply put, they're yankin' your chain. I get my information from Chiltons. When you installed the pulley, didn't you have a hell of a time getting the bolt loose? 29-36 ft/lbs would come off with little trouble.
Mared cams, bent valves, "kissed" pistons, blown oil pumps, and shattered clutches are all typical failures when you misshift. When you hit 2nd on a missed 2-4 shift at 80mph (I'm assuming you did this), would EASILY exceed 8000rpms which is WELL over spec on the valve springs, crank, pump, cams, tranny, etc. This is your problem...NOT the UDP.
