trigger offset question
i dont know if i have a hardware problem or just having a brain fart. i had my motor running w/ msII 3.57 and edis for the last 1.5 yrs. i changed the trigger wheel and my vr mount. the vr is still in the same clocked location, 3 oclock and my trigger offset use to be 0* essentially and maintaining approx 1/16" gap from vr to wheel. old wheel is the larger grey one while the new one is the smaller black one. they are 150* different. what should my trigger offest be? the motor rotates clockwise.

Re: trigger offset question
If you're running EDIS, you'll need to move the sensor so you have the same gap-to-sensor angle when the engine is at TDC as before. EDIS pretty much ignores the MS when cranking so there is only so much you can do with trigger offset before you get an engine that won't start.
