[Fot] Serious Question on TR3/4 Oil Pump Rotor Assembly

[fubog1 at aol.com]

Joe don't quote me but I'm pretty sure that they were all pinned.
It's easy enough to pin the replacements. They also usually need to 
have the end float set, and a good edge-break on the tang end.

FoT

There is a rotor assembly for sale on EBay and the claim is that is NOS.

I asked, and it has no pin in the shaft & rotor.

Is it not true that all OEM rotors were pinned?

Recent aftermarket oil pump offerings may be the cause of recent 
catastophic
failures.  A little knowledge in this group may save others this grief.
