All the diagrams associated with setting up for EDIS show the teeth on the wheel cut at an angle on both sides.
Mine are cut square. Will this make a difference on getting a good signal?? Thanks.

That looks fine, just make sure it is well centered.

Tooth 1 position is critical for use with a EDIS module, that determines the base spark timing.

However, I recommend not using the EDIS module unless you have to.

Any special reason you wouldn't go EDIS?? We don't plan to go beyond wasted spark and batch injection
with this engine.
Thanks.

When you use the EDIS module you can't use spark cut, rev limiting, launch control and flat shifting may also be affected.

Spark retard will work but no less than 10° which is the base timing for the EDIS

EDIS supports -10 deg (10ATDC)
