Installing Full Function Engineering trigger wheel in FC

I bought the Full Function Engineering trigger wheel for my FC and would like to use it with my power steering and air conditioning.

To make it simple I was going to install the PS and AC bracket right over it with washers and put washers the same thickness of the trigger wheel behind the PS pulley and AC pulley etc.

Do you think this will work other then using longer belts. See picture mock up.

i made up some ally spacers to move the p/s over , then flipped the pullies around so the belt would line up the pump pullie needs a 3 or 5mm spacer behind it again to make the belt line up ,
the only real hassle is the p/s pully needs to have slots cut into it to allow it to sit over the trigger wheel

I've noticed your picture on (after this post)

https://www.rx7club.com/vendor-class...-945965/page8/ post 181.

Anyhow want to try and run the air conditioning and PS. Not sure this is possible as I need to install 1/2" spacer on the pulleys for all components. Not enough thread length on the pulleys let alone figuring out how to pull the air conditioning pulley off.

Also not sure how close the sensor can be to the pulley. May cause crank sensing issues?

Note: This is just a mock up. Have not started spacers. Its just a few washes on one bolt only.

If you are extending the pulley out towards the front you may see that the AC and steering pump will not line up with that pulley now.
So for that you can drill the holes of the bracket Oblong,or place them at the right location to make up for the difference.(so the belt is straight to all pulleys)
I actually cut the Steering pump bracket and lowered the PS pump 6 inches to accompany my IC pipes.
Then I went manual steering afterwards.
