Re: Vortech with Crank Trigger ???
It is a ATI superdampner with ASP cog crank pulley,I used a universal MSD crank trigger and did all of the machining myself. I am a toolmaker by trade so its easy(lol) I had to change some dimensions on all parts involved to make it work.Machined down the thickness of the hub on the cog pulley and recreate the counterbore,then I had to open up the cranktrigger wheel to locate on the dampner. Then make a locator bushing to line everything up correctly. Then I had to modify the trigger pickup to work with modified Vortech bracket.Simple

Do you have other photos? Any suggestions on a simpler setup?

Interesting but not an option, other pics would be appreciated!
