cant help ya with a whole lot here but i can give you some direction . your crank sen. will be beside your lowest pully on the front of your engine. iv only worked on one dodge with a cam sencer and it was years ago so i dont remember what motor it was but on that the cam sencer was on the back of the head (fire wall drivers side) i dont even know if your motor has ether . i dont know if any of this helps but good luck
