The Toda gears that FM have now are available in both forms (with and without nubs), just compare the pics with what you have

Can you really not buy a replacement VC? I know you have things welded onto yours, but that can be redone. Do you really want your timing belt exposed that much.

I am going to mail you one of these stickers.

why can't you run a modified CAS and configure megasquirt for custom trigger wheel?
also, you can at least wear your neck restraint ...

That's another $200 plus another valve cover that I'll also have to get an AN-fitting welded on. So we're basically looking at $400 to get a CMP signal.

You could just get a normal trigger wheel in the right diameter for like 60 bucks and make your own hall effect sensor bracket.

1) run your choice of trigger wheel - 4T, 12-1T, 36-1T
2) cut one tab off the CAS - so it sends ONE pulse per camshaft revolution (normally it sends two pulses - long one and short one, 180* apart)
3) run 1 wire from CAS for cam signal, run 1 wire from crank sensor for crank signal

Where does that single-tooth fall in relation to the CKP #1 tooth?

the run of the mill BP05 distributor only has one tooth on the cam side, and is drop in.

If that's to scale you need a bigger sensor.

Between the first and last tooth, so 360 deg, or one complete revolution of the crank.

If the CMP tooth were to cross that it's have to be over 180deg in duration, (2 crank revs per 1 cam rev). Even the long pulse isn't that long, so you don't need to worry.

I know this is going to be a shock to everyone on the forum, but I'm confused. Rather than interpret what you wrote, I'll just clarify my question.

I was under the impression the CMP tooth needed to fall between tooth #2 and tooth #3 on my special "Hellow Kitty" CKP set-up. Can it fall somewhere else and still work properly?

I know it can on haltech. You have to tell it how many degrees the trigger tooth on the crank is from tdc and how many degrees the trigger tooth on the cam is from the combustion stroke tdc. And whatever that amount of degrees is is the max timing advance you can run.
