well
I know that knock will kill a gerotor oil pump due to the harmonics . The 4.6/5.4 ford guys and the honda guys have been having a problem with this i dunno if the buick will or not.
I don't really see the big adavanges over the stock set-up. The stock oil pump witht he correct mods done to it and the bearing clearances will have great oil pressure. the only thing that will change is the load of the cam sensor and timing chain.
besure to cheack out turbo1dr's page as he has had some changes over the yrs to his front pump covers and gear drives. this didn't happen overnight either.

Imaginary things are harder to bear than the actual ones. Since hate poisons the soul, do not cherish enmities, grudges. Don't hold post-mortems. Don't spend your life brooding over sorrow and mistakes. Don't be one who never gets over things. Do what you can for those less fortunate than yourself. Keep busy at something. A very busy person never has time to be unhappy."
