Just let ya all know my LDS-465- 1A is alive and well with its new IP and 6 new injectors lesson learned is make double sure you are properly timed it is totally possible to be 180 degrees out and it will not start make sure all 3 timing marks agree and your set to the proper timing mark on the dampener my original pump was timed to the LD465 mark not the LDS465-1mark and it was hard starting now with it set to the proper mark she fires up perfect! More later after the road test! Also check your power steering pump mine was broken the clip rings that hold the shaft in place had sheered and allowed the shaft to walk back and forth inside the pump good thing we found it during the repair! New pump on order!!!!!

That seems to be the weak spot for those pumps. My M62 had the same issue when I got it. Its no fun to drive them w/o power steering!
