OK, I have the balancer/reluctor her and comparing it to an old post for reluctor alignment, it seems fine. So I went back to the Fast PDF and it mentions retarded timing if the wires are wrong for the crank sensor......
Connect this plug to an inductive pickup type crankshaft sensor (typically a inductive pickup crank trigger or distributor), and connect the ring terminal to a ground point such as the engine block. The following chart shows the wire colors to connect for some common crank triggers. Virtually any crank trigger system should be compatible, so long as it is properly connected. IMPORTANT NOTE: The wiring conventions of different manufacturers can vary. FAST users should rely on this chart when connecting the listed crank triggers. That will ensure the ECU receives the required “positive first” sine wave from the crank trigger. If the wiring is reversed, timing may be retarded, erratic and/or change with engine speed. The FAST IPU ignition adapter harness will supply you with the MSD style connectors.

I have three wires on terminals a1 to a4 ( no wire on a3, I figure the crank and cam sensors share a ground) . Has anyone experienced anything with this phenomenon
