Can probably fit a penny in the gap. Didn't have one on had spent them all building this nightmare lol. While I had it down I did get a chance to order an uncut crank so I can run good bearings at least. Only found stock replacement's that would fit and wasn't too keen on sending the engine over 7500 with them in it.

Maybe I missed it, but is the motor back and running with the Callie's billet reluctor and you've rev'd it to the same rpm and no breakup?

Im staring at a crank sensor right now and pretty sure it's wide enough it would read the pulses with a penny gap so I'll be curious if this solves your problem and what else may have changed at the same time.

I'll get the engine in and once it runs correctly shut the case and assume it was from the wheel or crank i just didn't want to have to pull the engine again if the wheel didn't help.

I also would like to say that i ran the last engine (370ci) to 7400 rpms with same everything besides short block obviously. So computer shouldn't be the problem neither should the harness. the 6.0 was a 24x reluctor as well
