I would attribute that to him doing something wrong or using the wrong combination of parts.  Were they standard volume, high volume, or high pressure?  What pan is he using?  Has he ruled out the possibility of debris he may not have seen while the pan was off?  Has he rechecked the condition of the crankshaft and connecting rod bearings?

As for my car since the stock 302 H.O. shortblock has a stock pan and is daily driven.  I use a stock OEM replacement Sealed Power oil pump and oil pump screen.  For my 351W/393 that I'm trying to build I will be running a stock Crown Victoria pan with a Melling M-83 standard volume pump, Melling 83-S1 oil pump screen, OEM Clevite oil pump shaft, and stock bearing clearances since it will be a street motor.

You can run a stocker on a built motor and make it by. By built I mean like h/c/i. If you are going to re-do the entire motor, then upgrade for safety's sake.

More than likely, he has a little debris on the pickup tube screen. I bet you anything that's what it is.
