LOL - there WAS BBQ! Smoked two pork butts for 14 hours the night B4. Good times, until we threw a stuck APV code....
Turns out it was nothing we did - it was the APV gears. Without Dan's expert troubleshooting, we would not have had a successful outcome. The outer white gear under the APV motor was installed 180 degrees in the wrong direction.
It's fixed and on the street for break-in.

How does it feel when with the little bit of driving you have done?

I will shoot some vids later this week. Can't really say it sounds different, but then again we kept it under 4K. Idles smooth as glass. We only drove slowly around the neighborhood and came back home and looked everything over. I need to get some break in miles on it.
I forgot to tighten down the oil filler neck, and when I went to pour oil in, well it made a slight mess. Brake cleaner should fix it clean.

Yea, in hindsight, it might have been me. I had the gears all apart also, so I will take the blame. We had three APV motors to use, so after Dan swapped the first motor out, and it still threw the code, we started thinking the worst - pull the engine back out to pull the LIM. Instead, we pulled the second APV motor off and found the gears rotated fine. No binding. We had my old LIM to study since the one on the rebuild was from another car. Studied the gears a bit and noticed the magnetic pickup on the outer white gear was not in the correct position for when all open or all closed. Struggled to get the gear out, swapped 180, bolted it all back up and it worked like a champ.

Threw the P0300 misfire code.
Found loose plug wire front trailing.
Threw the same P0300 misfire.
Installed new coils.
Now throwing P0302 cylinder 2 misfire.
Now resetting the ESS.
That cleared it.
Those coils were not that old - weird.
