DB9 AM11 V12 detailed info needed

[SinisterSF]

Is anyone here packed with technical knowledge on the AM11 V12s? I’m using one for a stand-alone build and I need to answer 2 questions that I haven’t been able to find info on:

1. What sort of sensor(s) does it use to trigger the ignition? Variable reluctor (magnetic pickup)? Optical? Hall effect? Old fashioned mechanical breaker points? Are the sensors triggered by trigger wheels on the crankshaft / flywheel, distributor / cam, or both?

2. How many teeth / windows / slots and are on the crank or distributor trigger wheel? How are they arranged? (Equally spaced, missing teeth gaps, etc)

I’ve googled this to death and haven’t found any info. I guess there’s not a lot of people out there using AM motors in crazy swaps 🤷🏻‍♂️

From the works manual

"A twin sprocket installed to the front end of the crankshaft drives the camshaft chains. A damper pulley installed on the
crankshaft nose drives the engine auxiliaries via a polyvee drive belt. Also at the front of the engine a timing disc is installed
together with two crankshaft sensors. The sensors provide engine position signals to the two Engine control modules."

I looked through my photos of my engine build and I can convince myself it was a standard ford missing tooth wheel on the front of the crankshaft. I also recall that only one of the two magnetic sensors (left side and right side) was actually connected, but both are in place.

Good luck. The 2006 DB9 engine is a pretty simple beast - no VANOS, nothing particularly complicated...
