The Phase sensor / Cam Sensor
A Cosworth Crank Sensor (Weber) Roughly £28 can be bought secondhand but for this price its not worth it.

A Highly polished Stainless Steel bracket to hold the sensor, it is adjustable via 2 springs and Stainless Areoquip nuts. Measures as low as 1thou
Not that you would need to
£40
A Laser cut then lathed mild steel disk which acts as the trigger for the magnetic sensor to pickup. £28
When these items are used together it gives an infinitive mechanical adjustment to the setup. This is not to be confused with the adjustments in the map!
It enables the adjustment of the phase timming to the EXACT position for your engine spec and setup. Any Tuner in the world will be able to adjust the settings in a mechanical way. This needs to be perfect before the mapping of the engine in an electronic way. Maybe a tuner (of your choice) will need to move it to get the best out of the engine setup which is simple to do, unlock the disk and turn in any direction 360degree then lock back into place.
EASY
**Prices added for a comparison to a dizzy**
Now to add a little fun....
On a 16v TWIN CAM engine i can control the phase timming from the inlet cam and the Speed sensor from the exhaust cam.
For kit cars or tight engine bays this is a kool feature..
This is how i control the engine bay below, first of its kind running Focus Motorsport CGi Bottom end, P8 with coilpack.
