Which is crank and which is cam? (pic)

Could someone please tell me which sensor is for the crank and which is for the cam? It's for a friend and he is putting a 1g motor in his 2g.... the 1g motor is gone and he is clueless with the sensors...please help

Okay here's the deal with those sensors. The one on the left is a 2G crank sensor and the right if a 2G cam sensor. You said your friend is going to install a 6 Bolt in his 2G right? If that is the case then your friend will not utilze any of the two. As the 6 Bolt motor doesn't have any provisions to mount the two sensors in their proper place. The only way to do the swap is with the 1G cam sensor which is much larger and mounts on the passeger side of the cylinder head. He should know all of this before even attempting to do this swap. He should also be aware that he is going to have to splice the wires going to his 2G crank sensor with the 1G cam sensor so that the ECU gets both of the signals.

Yep, this is tricky stuff; better do some homework. Here's the place that came up with the bible on how to do this. Check out their technical articles.
