Default Need to ask a favour..

Allright guys, could i be cheeky enough to ask someone a small favour?
It's regarding a crank pulley off a Cosworth engine, a pulley i don't have and here in Italy are quite hard to find. Could someone kindly measure the distance between the TDC 'v' and the nearest injection phase raised tooth?
I'm trying to time up an engine that's fitted with Cosworth management.
Thanks a million to anyone who can help!

I don't have a pulley to hand to measure for you but I thought I'd just mention that the 'V' in the pulley isn't actually the TDC marker, you line the crank trigger lug closest to the 'V' notch in the pulley with the pointer on the front crank cover and that is TDC, that's caught a fair few people I know out in the past.

Middle of V cutout to the nearest lug is 15mm to the center of the lug.
