Will it start w/o Cam sensor, m96 2.5 ?

Here is one odd question,

My car is 1997. 2.5 tiptronic, with a seriously dead engine (rod bearings, scored cylinders etc) that i swapped for an Audi 3.0 30v v6 engine. The motor itself bolts to the 986 tranny and it is already in, on a fabricated cradle.

My intention is to run it with stock DME for convenience and stock look and feel, so i already made adjustments to 60-2 trigger wheel on the crank, and now it has the same angle as on m96, also made wiring modifications for the new fire order , 3d printed adapter for porsche throttle body etc etc. I will start a build thread later.

The question is , will the DME fire the engine with both CAM sensors disconnected ?

Audi engine has a different style toothed cam wheel with 4 teeth, all different length, and porsche has only one tooth for sync. I will have to deal with it later , to make the camshaft variator work, but for now , i just want to hear the engine fire.

If anyone is servicing his car and is willing to help, please just unplug both sensors and try to fire up

Regards,

RAle
