Beginning to open the throttle....timing starts jumping!
Change some things and move some things around then try start the motor....backfire
To be a thorough we pull off the crank position sensor and BAM! The reluctor wheel that is supposed to be pressed on is loose and you can spin it with your pinky. The reluctor that was supposed to be pressed on had shaken itself loose.
Result? now the motor need to come back apart. The great thing is that ERL is standing behind their motor 100% and Tony Mamo is on board to help out so within a weeks time, the motor is back apart and the crank is already on its way to Callies in Ohio to have a new billet wheel put on and tack welded to replace the faulty GM piece.
I am so glad that all this has happened on the engine dyno. If it was installed in the car it would have been a MAJOR nightmare trying to trouble shoot it.
This demonstrates the reason why I deal with companies/people that enjoy and take pride in what they do. Both Tony and ERL have gone above and beyond what I have expected to fix this with urgency and without any money out of my pocket. I still may make Bimmerfest! So my fingers are crossed!
Soo.... even with the timing jumping all over the place, the motor was making 500ft/lbs of torque on the bottom end! Let's see what she will do when she is all back together again. New engine dyno date is on the 23rd.
Will report back soon.95 7.1L 16V E36 M3

Time for an update...
ERL and Callies fixed the crank in a weeks time! The even put a billet reluctor wheel on there.
The motor was finally built the second time around and Tony was able to build it the second time around and treat it carefully as if it were his own.
And then off to Westech for break in and power pulls.
