MSD's 8964 Knock Sensor
http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MSD%2D8964&N=700+115&autoview=sku

that is really the only one i've seen that can help combat persistant knock. Please share if there are any other products on the market like this. $250 is alot-o-money...

PS. I'm running PF and MSD's 6212 for ignition

My personal take is save your money and just build yourself a set of det-cans for listening for knock while tuning. Aftermarket knock sensors can be finicky and need to be tuned to pick up the frequency of knock on your motor.

Most shops like AMS use the "knock Box"

Damn, the price on that went up nearly 60 bucks since we discussed about this Terry.

I second the det cans Mikey.

Yours is a fairly safe build, and the det cans would most likely do the trick.
