S38 Trigger wheel for Megasquirt

[claylake]

What are people using to mount a trigger wheel on the S38's? I am building a Megasquirt standalone ECU. From what I have read my options are machine a Ford EDIS wheel to the crank pulley or is there a later model (say E34 or E39) that already has one that I can use?

You can use a 60-2 wheel from an e34. That is the clean bolt up solution.

Thanks, I did not know if that was a direct replacement. Looks like a trip to the boneyard is in order and fabricate a bracket for the sensor.

I should be a little more clear...i know this setup works for M30 blocks, but you will have to double check if the S38 crank will accept the wheel.

The 60-2 wheel does fit the S38. I had one on the M635.
I have a spare if you can't find one locally.

Thanks John, I'll let you know if I can't find one but I think I know where one is.

Do you have a picture of the bracket you used to support your crank sensor and what sensor did you use (e.g. Bosch. GM, Ford)?

It all bolts up. The bracket is bolt on from the same m30b35 setup. I'm using the b35 sensor as well. The bracket is made up of two pieces and a bolt. BMW sells the assembly for around $14.

Thanks, that part of the puzzle is solved.
