Triumph Spitfire 1500 1976
Had the MJLJ in for a bit now and is up and running properly, still some tidying up to do with the installation and some tweeking of the ignition timing. The car runs much smoother now with an increase in power, definately the best modification i've done to the car.

Here's the VR sensor and trigger wheel. The bracket is far from pretty but is strong and does the job well. I had the wheel welded on to the crank pully, done by eye, and then turned to take any 'off center' discrepency.

And what's next????
I see that you also just happen to have a new 6 rib poly vee pulley mounted in front of the existing belt, now I wonder what you might be planning to do with that.
I assume that the fact that the Eaton M45 from a Mini has a 6 rib poly vee belt is purely coincidental
