Trigger wheel and cooper s crank damper
Turbo Mini Forums

Any one using a cooper s damper and a trigger wheel?? If so what have you use? Bolt on kit, self made bolt on or machined the damper ring?

I've always been a bit skeptical about machining the damper it self as surely it affects how it works, is this true??

Hi, I have a trigger wheel fitted to an 'S' damper with belt drive aswell, and I agree that in my opinion it's not a good idea to machine the damper or bolt the trigger wheel to the rubber mounted outer, as the outer ring can flex. I've machined a collar so the trigger wheel bolts to the centre of the damper. I'm sure there's an engine firm selling such a collar, sorry don't remember who. (Very simple to machine if you have access to a lathe)

I machined the damper, and made up a mount for a rover 75 hall effect sensor,
