Reluctor swapping.

[Dragonbat13]

Ok. It's a simple question. please keep the answers to the engines at hand.

Is there a fix for putting a 32 tooth (or whatever the pre-eagle tooth count is), on an eagle engines crankshaft in place of the 58 tooth? will any stock parts work? is there any aftermarket parts?

I'm only interested in the 5.7 engines. To be clear I am wanting to use the complete eagle engine in an earlier application. Not concerned about the wiring or anything of that sort. There are specific reasons I want to try this particular conversion.

I have put a 32 tooth wheel on a 2011 Eagle 5.7 crankshaft. This was a direct bolt on. I have heard that there may possibly be a change in the later cranks with the bolt pattern on the reluctor.

Did it come from a 5.7 or a 6.1? and do you know what year the donor engine was? I have read somewhere that one swap will allow the use of one less bolt but I don't know what the donor application was.

The 32 came from an early 03-08, don't recall specific year. It was a 5.7.
