LS2 58 tooth wheel = 60-2?

Starting to piece together parts and research plans to swap an LS1 into my 2003 Z4. I need to feed the stock BMW computer with a crank signal so I can keep the factory gauges (and for emissions purposes). In reading, everything seems to say BMWs use a 60-2 crank wheel. I know the LS2s have a 58 tooth wheel, so is that the same (58 teeth + 2 blank spots = 60-2)?

*crossing fingers*

I heard it was the same thing. Heard being the key word here.

You can search, I made some posts in a Holley EFI thread and someone commented about the 58x and the 60-2 being the same thing. Maybe you can find it and pm the guy.

Make sure the BMW definitely runs the tach off the crank sensor input.

The vast majority of LS2 are 24x only the LS2 that came in the corvettes were 58x you need to verify this by looking at the color of your crank sensor to see if it is black = 24x and gray = 58x
