14 sec = PLENTY of time to circulate metal bits. have you drained the oil from the old motor yet? i think it would be worth a look. my guess is that it's got some froth in it. you said the coolant was oil-free, though?
i think i'd pull the radiators & take them to get reconditioned. ditto for the heater core.

I first heard the clatter at 45 sec, it quit running at 59 sec. Suffice it to say that it was running poorly those 14 seconds. I mainly coasted down the esses, and only gave it gas again to try and power up to the exit road. When I gave it that little bit of fuel is when the big puff of smoke happened.
