    well, hopefully I will have a bin file to look at later tonight so I can see what I'm working with. I think the simple way is just to rotate the wheel as mentioned above, but if it's possible to change the reference angle, that would take the guesswork out of it for sure, as I could use the value for my engine and be done with it.

    There would be no need to change the firing order on the coil pack, because you'd clock the trigger wheel in relation to the sensor. This would make everything work as if it were factory installed.
    The man who says something is impossible, is usually interrupted by the man doing it.

    Depends on the engine cylinder count, mask type, and especially if you are needing misfire detection to work. Especially on a 58x wheel (60-2) with VRS sensor, the misfire detection window can't be within two teeth of the gap on either side. On the LS1-style mask (24x with the wide-narrow pattern) it should not matter provided you set the reference angle in the calibration correctly but I've never done it on a OE GM controller but the controllers I program (for work) handle different sensor angles transparently - you just type in the number.
