$665.43?!?!?!?! For a small chunk of metal? That'* not even worth it! Please tell me I can use something like my feeler gauges to adjust it.

You may not even need that. IIRC the older models were slotted, so adjustment was necessary. But on the newer sensors, there were no slots...so only one way to bolt it on, and one position only.
Feeler gages would be useless as the gap is way too wide. I would instead take a compass/caliper and measure out the distance between the center of the HB and the tooth ring. Then, use that same distance from the center of the crankshaft to the center of the sensor (between the two pickup teeth).

Yeah, that'* all it is. My son held the feeler gauge from above & I slid the sensor over with one hand and tightened the pinch bolt with the other. The .020 gauge felt a little tight so we tried a .015 and that was loose. Fired right up.
