So ive started to making my loom for the Link G3 ecu

so far ive wired to COPs and a few sensors but im at the point now where i need to fit a trigger wheel, as im removing the stock ignition setup and dizzy cap end etc for neatness.

my plan was to use a design i saw on Mikey B's project a while ago.

welding on a 36-1 trigger wheel to the crank and custom making a bracket to hold the VR sensor.

whos done this? and lets get some pics up please :D

i would just bolt a trigger wheel to the crank pulley and then make a bracket for the sensor. i wouldnt want to go about welding it!!! you can use the 2 stock holes that are already there, just make sure you locktight the bolts in, just in case :)
you could make a bracket quite easily that came off where the aircon compressor went

Oh yea forgot the harmonic damper has bolt holes! Sweet, i deffo dont want it out of balance justneed to measure itbefore i order a wheel.
I've got plently of practice at making brackets, my engine bays i are full of diy brackets lol.

I'm also trying to hide as many wires as possible so low down by block is good. But I've got few hoses there ATM need to check this again

Would this work for a pulley?

Then you could mount the sensor on the oil pump housing, if you look at the photo below, you can see the hole for the sensor on the right hand picture, at the top.

I think the link software will allow a few different teeth count types, don't fancy chancing my oil pump just to get sensor bracket as easy as it would be lol.



Awesome that's exactly the type of photo I'm after....

Did you have it balanced after fitting?

Also i now read that to Use a coil on plug i might need a cam and crank sensor...

I had to do this for my Omex..
I fitted mine to crank pulley, and then had it balanced..





hope that helps matey..

as for sensor, I welded a bracket onto my sump..

You can just use the stock triggers mate, although you get much more accurate response with a crank wheel, you can always just use the original cam trigger from the dizzy and use a trigger wheel on the crank. Saves messing around with the cam side of things.
