TURBO'D CLIO

Hi all
Serious help is needed please as i want to get this right first time, I'll start from the top so you all get a idea of what im trying to do and then hopefuly give me some advice on the matter...
I've pulled my 480 turbo lump out of the volvo and fitting it in the clio, i've had it in and running with no problems but didnt have the drive sorted as waiting for bit's.. Now the volvo was a auto and I'm converting it to manual..
I've got a 172 flywheel which was kindly sold to me by scoff on here and told it will fit fine etc just need to move the sensor accross...
Here's a pic of the auto flywheel with the 2 teeth missing..

Now i marked where the cut out was on the auto flywheel for the tdc sensor to read, i marked it with 2 tippex lines, the 2 lines basicly show the where the 2 teeth where missing on the auto flywheel..
You can see the gap is different on the 172 flywheel roughly 1 tooth out..

Scoff told me i need to move the sensor accross the same distance as it is on my markings, but the trouble is im not sure which way the sensor needs to go, towards me or towards the bulk head (as u look into bonnet)..
And also unsure which way to measure the gap and how too? in mm or degree's...
I've confussed my self summit rotten over this now and different things keep popping in my head, not sure what to beleave so i thought you guys could shed some light on this please...
Many thanks guys, rob..
