Default Cam/crank sensor

Installing Autronic SM4 on my 3dr these days and got a 36-1 trigger wheel on the crank.
Will be running 4 coils direct fire.
Whats the best sensors to use on the cam/crank? Standard reluctor or hall effect?
Will probably use the small turbo phase sensor assembly modified to give one pulse per engine cycle (720deg) but open to ideas,..

Cheers

When I used a trigger wheel on my 2wd sapphy I just used the std ford sensor in the std place/bracket, lined up perfectly.

You can use the complete Small turbo parts as these work perfect on the standard car.
