Default LS2 to LS1 style crank trigger help

I have a 2006 Corvette and I got a deal on a LS3 block with a LS1 style stroker assembly. Problem is the crank has the 24x crank trigger and I have the 58x LS2 trigger. I know LPE sells the 24x to 58x converter but will it work vise versa? If not what can I do other then buy a stand alone?

The motor is fully assembled so putting the 58x reluctor on the crank is not an option. I'd rather buy a stand alone before I went through all that trouble.

The LPE box won't work the other way.

That stand alone you listed only controls ignition and I believe you would still need a way to control injectors.

You are kinda stuck here.

Either a BS3 or Fast type standalone, which prolly isn't an easy alternative.
or
Tear it down and swap reluctor wheel to 58x.

I bit the bullet and pulled the motor and tore it down to the bear block. Got the 58x on the way. Should have it back together by fri night if all goes well.
