Have you checked on the postage changes?

Depending on what you're fitting it to, you might find it easier to buy a trigger wheel made for that purpose, like say for a RV-8. Other than that it looks to be complete.

Price is good I would say.

But as Dave says, you would be better off getting a trigger wheel from triggerwheels (google) and VR sensor bracket specifically for the Rover V8.

Or do what I did and use the GEMS sensor which picks up from the flywheel.

Just to add, I bought the Trigger Wheels wheel, sensor and bracket for my SD1, and it wouldn't fit. The PS pump is where the sensor is meant to go, and my car has air-con so the trigger wheel wouldn't fit as intended either.

What are you trying to achieve? If you want a fuel and ignition ECU then I would think about going direct fire rather than EDIS if your going the MS route

I am rebuilding my off roader at the moment and considering ways to make it more reliable around water, its pretty good at the moment to be honest but thinking the EDIS route might be a worth while upgrade.

That is what I do, I supply all the parts or whatever you need to make your V8 water proof. There are 3 landrovers and 1 toyota with RV8's in 1 challenge series, that Iv'e converted to MS and EDIS and all will run totally submerged... Have a look at this
