Not a ton. The dowel sticks just far enough out of the crank face to kind of locate it and I stuck a punch through one of the bolt holes to keep it located so I know it didn't rotate too far. It's...

Ok, the reason the ECU isn't throwing misalignment codes is that the set conditions require:
Battery Voltage 11V or more
60 seconds of engine running

Thanks, now I just need a way to keep the timing wheel anchored since I almost definitely pressed the dowel flat into the crank.

How is that key anchored in the crank? Is it fixed in one spot and the hole is blind or can it be shoved through the crank to make the trigger wheel flush? I'm looking through iRacer's build thread...

I did, there was a little bit of engine oil on the back of the plate. That helped me identify which direction it was supposed to go; teeth toward engine.
