Default Cosworth dizzyless/coilpack/phase sensor

Hi all,

I have a dizzyless engine loom from Ryan to use on my sapphire cosworth (when its finally built )
I was wondering if anyone knows if i can use a small turbo escort cosworth phase sensor instead of using my sapphire distributor without cap?

Cheers

Mart

i take it you want the oahse sensor in the cam cover?

if so you will have ot buy the kit and have your cam cover machined and your inlet cam drilled to accet the adaptor

im thinking of going this way aswell on my build but unsure as of yet wether to do it or not

I was thinking of the cam sensor etc but i noticed a small turbo escort cosworth phase sensor on ebay.
I wondered if this could be used instead of the sapphire distributor/pump drive thats all.

it could be used if you was running some type of aftermarket ecu, the two sensors work differently
