New Rod bearings = No oil pressure?

Hope that's it sir, I had a scarey situation one time after doing the belts and water pump. I didn't tighten the bolt to spec and it back out while I was idling in a parking lot a few days later, crank was most the way off. Praise God the timing was still correct and no valves were harmed.

I've seen values from 150 to 160 but make sure the pulley and key are aligned correctly. Also, did you make sure all the seals, including the green one, are installed? When I replaced the oil pump sleeve and front crank seal my car was on jack stands. I couldn't develop enough force on the torque wrench to get the 150. So, I got a 5 foot pipe and put that on the handle and came in from the top to torque the bolt. It's essential to get that bolt tight or the oil pump won't work. Let us know how you've done.
Definitely a flywheel lock.

I got the flywheel lock, but like I said, the wheel that spins the ps belt... The hole in the middle is much bigger than the insertion. It's hard to align it right in the middle. As soon i start torquing, it moves out of its alignment....
Anyway, im not with car right now, ill check it out tonight
Thanks all

Get the front end assembled correctly, and hopefully it'll all work.

thanks Van for the reply,
Looking at the PET, I'm pretty sure everything is in the correct order:
#24: PS belt
#18: alternator / ac belt
#15: balance belt
#14: timing belt
it's funny how I don't remember seeing the #20bolt ?
I'll put everything apart tonight and start over.
I'll let you all know, thanks

It's pretty clear the oil pump drive sleeve is not engaged. The sleeve may now be damaged after torquing the bolt with the splines in interference. Look the components over carefully. Once everything is properly engaged, the pulleys will line up fine.
