The easiest thing to do is to find a good, solid place to mount your VR sensor. Then, you can align the trigger wheel relative to the position of the sensor.

A simple installation procedure to follow:

1. Mount the sensor in any convenient way that simplifies bracket design and accommodates mounting points on the engine block.
2. Turn the crankshaft to precise Top Dead Center (TDC) for cylinder #1.
3. Position the timing wheel onto the crank pulley with the missing tooth aligned to the sensor.
4. Now offset the the timing wheel position:
* If your engine turns clockwise when facing the crank pulley, rotate the timing wheel clockwise "N" Teeth.
* If your engine turns counter-clockwise when facing the crank pulley, rotate the timing wheel counter-clockwise "N" Teeth.
5. mark this final location of the sensor wheel onto the crank pulley- then weld or bolt timing wheel into place as appropriate.

Does the missing tooth not have to be 90 degrees from top dead center but?

In a sense. The centre of your missing tooth must point exactly at the centre of the VR sensor 90 degrees before TDC.

Edit - assuming you've got a 4-cylinder engine

Correct- and, applied when the engine is at TDC. The step by step instructions are there to help prevent my head from exploding (and hopefully others)...
