MS diagram?



The ABA crank will drop into the 3A block, or any 1.8 block although they 
would need some clearancing for the rods.
I imagine you could machine a crank to mount the ABA trigger wheel although 
you'd then need to add the holes in the block for the sensor, which seems a 
little more difficult to me. i.e I'm not sure other blocks have material 
where you need it for mounting the sensor.
OTOH, ABA short blocks are cheap if you really want the trigger wheel.
