Have you checked crankshaft end play?? If the crank can "walk" slightly in and out..this can cause some pretty weird crank signals..I dont know just a thought?

Well, perfect as in what??? The number 3 bearing also substitutes as the thrust bearing in these motors I'm sure you know. In any event if what you are saying is true, your thrust bearing has been eaten up. Are you sure everything was AOK when you put it together because if it was then you know what that means... Time to pull the POS and see what's up. Not good at this point because the crank may have been damaged if it all of a sudden has alot of endplay.
