Well I think the dolly broke it again....

Going to call in the am and see if they have any warranty on the arm I just replaced.

Just some speculation here...

I believe you said the unit is rated for 30hp and a bunch of rpm... but...
Is there a spec for max torque?

I'd guess it doesn't care as much about hp as it does about torque.
When the input is geared 2-1, the torque applied to the arm is doubled.
I think the typical application for the land & sea unit is running directly off the crank.

Not sure how abruptly you can slow a saw down with the valve setup but I know on the disc brake dyno it was possible to get really large spikes in torque if the brake was a bit overly applied, like 4-5 times the saws rated output.

Then again maybe it's just seeing some bad vibe/harmonics, that sort of thing is really difficult to ferret out.
