Default electronic pickup position

Hi all
I have a BT-64eis and this the first gas engine that I have owned although i have been modelling for 40 odd years.
In all the pictures that i have seen the sensor unit is mounted on the top position of the crankcase where as mine is mounted below the crankshaft. I note that the parts breakdown pic on page 11 shows it below the shaft.
Can I change it to the top if I rotate the rotor 180 degrees, or will the woodruff key dictate the fitting of the rotor.

Thanks guys
Cheers Geoff

The EI unit, as installed, is mounted correctly. Don't change it. The pictures may be of an earlier version.

Thanks for that info Bill on the sensor position. We do not have a distrubitor for these engines in Australia so I rely on the experience of other users

Cheers Geoff
