neat!!!!
I'm wondering if I can use the smaller wheel on the Camshaft gear end to eliminate the mounting problems? _________________ 1978 924 95 mile daily driver.

Good looking stuff but you would need a 72-2 gear for cam mounting assuming you are going EDIS.

I just used a GM wheel, which I cut the centre out of then welded to the back of my front pulley, its very light.
I welded a single peg onto my cam gear, for the cam pickup, for fully sequential.
The ones in your link, look like they might be quite heavy. |

Yeah I like the idea of a ring instead of a wheel. _________________ 1979 Euro 931, Olive

This trigger wheel is of a GM/OPEL/VAUXHALL Astra
I dont have an aircon, if you do, you will have to mount it differently. The aircon belt is on the inside pulley, alternator on the outside.
The inner and outer ID's matched the Porsche wheel perfectly. I'm not sure if i enlarged the centre ID, to fit the VW I used it on previously.
The adjustment screws are from when I used the wheel on my VW.
It just clears the oil pump housing, and you can mount the sensor in about 10 minutes, because it is level with the 3 bolts, that hold the alternator sub mount. |

Something like I did on my 931, instead I welded to notches to the 931 crank pulley 180 degrees apart. Sensor is also mounted using the alternator sub-mount bolts. _________________ '83 924 2.6 16v Turbo, 470hp
