Clewett Engineering..... I had the Chris White to get me out of the hole for a bit and it only made it WAY worse....

I started to get triggers errors with the stock speed/ref sensors as i was pushing the car on the dyno. I was spending more time adj the filters for the speed/ref senors. This is the reason why i went with the 60-2 setup. With the CW setup i started to have issues at high RPM because the wheel wobbled due the the wheel not being true. then i was having even more issues when i had to leave the car outside and the wheel started to develop rust.

Sounds like the problems I've had with 60-2 crank mounted triggers on my Audi. I even had the wheel trued to a crazy degree and still had problems. Moving to a flywheel 60-2 trigger.
Did you ever scope out the actual sensor to see the waveform stability? And measure peak-peak voltages?

Yes as matter of fact we test 3 sensors all very close to specs.

Hope the Clewett piece works!
Even after true'ing on a lathe, this was the best waveform I could get with a crank trigger wheel. There's still vibration of the crank and mounting points that'll cause variation.

Looking at the CW setup, it's not surprising it didn't work well. That's not a very secure place to put it.
Gap is also critical. Most like gap of 0.025" or less. Also some sensors don't have a perfect symmetrical polar pickup pattern, so sometimes it helps to try rotating the sensor (all while maintaining the correct gap).

Patrick Motorsports makes a 60-2 fly. I think Rich Luciano bought one from memory. Looks like reasonable costs vs alternatives. http://www.patrickmotorsports.com/
