It already has the billet reluctor from LME.

The material in the oil filter appears to be bearing material. Got some things to check out and the system log and data log is already at holley being checked out.

End play at the crank appears to be unchanged since it was assembled. So it doesn't appear to be a thrust issue. Weird thing though, I ohm'ed the coils out tonight and one does appear different than the other three....

Shame to hear about the bearing material... Hard to find anyone that can build an engine anymore, other than GM themselves

motor is ready to come out. I'll pull it tomorrow and call LME to see if we can get it on their dyno this week.

Hopefully the problem will replicate itself to the point we can figure out whats causing the issue.

So you might not need to tear the engine down?

I hope we don't need to tear it down. We'll see though...
