Default Crank Position Sensor Bracket Pics

Hi all,

Starting to get all the parts etc together to convert from MFI to management.

I would prefer to make/build most of the stuff my self but after numerous searches etc i cant find any detailed pics / Measurements of a Crank Position Sensor Bracket.

I'm really just after a measurements if i'm totally honest.

If your running standalone management then just fit the EFI flywheel and then drill the hole so that the end of the CPS is perfectly inline with one of the 'teeth' on the back of the flywheel!

So have you fitted an EFI flywheel but not drilled the block for the sensor?

No i dont have a EFI flywheel.

Going to use a 36-1 trigger wheel on the bottom pulley hence why i'm going to use/make my own CPS bracket.

I did hear that you can run a pickup from the top pulley, but dont want to lose the standard look of the engine bay.

Ah sorry I thought you wanted to know the dimensions for the stock EFI one! lol
If your making your own then just buy a trigger wheel from www.trigger-wheels.com and weld it to the bottom pulley, then knock up a bracket to hold the CPS where you want it, took me about 30mins to do mine, think I used one oil pump bolt and a sump bolt to secure it in place, really easy mate!
