You're thinking of going for a crank trigger?
Your VEMS is setup for a hall trigger so we'll need to modify it if you plan to go that direction.

Well if you decide to go this way we could look at the way the guys in Sweden prefer to do their crank triggers - one tooth at 60deg BTDC and one tooth at 60deg BBDC and use a Honeywell 1GT1 hall sensor.

Which would give you a top quality sensor with the right output type...  And arguably a better triggering solution.

i was going to get an aluminium crank pully wheel machined to take a trigger wheel, the trigger wheel your talking about would have 2 teeth 180' apart and could be 2 machined studs set onto the pully with the exposed ends shaped to form a tooth, they could be set into the middle belt drive as this is spare :)

Sounds like the start of a good plan.  You can use the CAS disk's inner slot as the cam sync.

The Honeywell 1GT101 sensor is detailed here:

It weighs in at the hefty price of £18
