megasquirt question

Hi all

just getting together a list of what i need to put megasquirt on my car.

I will be using it for spark first then injection once spark is working and running for a bit,
is it possible to use the distributor (electronic bosch) as the sensor instead of a VR sensor on the crank pulley, still looking at using the ford Edis and coil pack but wondered if i really need the toothed signal

thanks in advance

Mark

appears to show exactly that....

Usually trigger wheels have a missing tooth so an ECU can work out exactly what's going on. Obviously this wouldn't be happening with a dizzy based system....
