I have put these on a few minis. Basically w ejust turned down a pulley to the correct size and then slipped it on with a bit of glue. On the TT it has some tabs welded to the pulley to keep it on. Both road cars are just push fitted though.

Looks a bit like this:

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

Does it work ok and what size bolts did you use off the top of your head

BA...you old boot!

M5-M6 is probably easier to get hold of, especially with regards to taps.

Here's it is painted



And heres the crank sensor holder i knocked up this morning its a bit rough but there we go ,it works though.

looks good enough to me what did you use to hold the trigger wheel to the pully in the end?

i was thinking a possible interference fit would work well, similar how ring gears used to be held on i believe or am i making that up?

Yep the ring-gear method works well, once i machined the standard pulley and then i lightly trued up the trigger wheel .

you could use a grub screw to fix the outer ring to the damper, then you can loosen it and make minute adjustment to get the sensor exactly 90 btmtatdc (before the missing tooth at top dead centre)

"Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

"did you know you can toast potato waffles?"

do it like adjustable cam pulleys. a very good idea.

will the quite heavy trigger wheel affect the damping characteristics? ( will it still work properly).

i'm looking on fitting one for a MJLite JR in a NA ( high-isch rpm) application.

edit:

This country has reached the point that no cvh fords are to be found.. mostly duratec stuff these days.

machining, 30 quid for a trigger wheel...

Sod it i'm buying a ready made one..
