Cam sensor position

Post by Pete m »

I am building a Jaguar 3.0 V6 with Piper camshafts, the original cams have a sensor on the end of each inlet cam

I intend to swap one of the sensors onto a piper inlet cam, consequently I can position the sensor anywhere + or - 360 of TDC

Is there an optimum position for the cam sensor in relation to tdc

As long as it is not near TDC, that is fine.
If you are using VVT, then also make sure the sensor cannot cross over TDC
