Ben,
The left sprocket (1-2-3 cylinders) alignment distance is 98.07 mm (+/- 0.25).
The right sprocket (4-5-6 cylinders) alignment distance is 43.27 mm (+/- 0.25).
The difference between left and right sprockets alignment distances is 54.8 mm.
The Bentley SC shop manual has a very nice diagram for reference. HTH.
