I’m going ahead on the engine from my S3. It is an XJS one. How do the crankshaft sensor can be fitted on the engine?
Who has done this adaptation and how has been done this particular fastening?
I’ve done a small flat angle bracket but the cable from the sensor is too close from the box oil filter. I’m not happy with.
Here is picture of the sensor:

Is that sensor for the Marelli ignition system?

If so, i think you would be better off using the dual coil Lucas ignition system.

Less complicated, also has vacuum advance, more reliable than Marelli.
