LT1 KM... and yes it was showing that much at idel... maby i did not cut enough of my valve covers away for the RR's.. I looked and did not see any spots where it had been hitting?

 

Well something is up, maybe the sensitivity in the tuning is too high.

Or the cam is degreed in wrong.

how could the cam be degreed wrong? I guess the only place where I could have actually adjusted the position of the cam was when i put the timing chain on... but i lined that up perfectly... afaik... but then again its probably not too perfect!

 

AH HA!!!!!!... waht if it is 100% correct and the 6-8 month old gas i have in there is causing it to detonate!?!?!?

 

Well your running the stock tune correct? That could be part of it. Also, your headers could be rubbing something, etc causing the KM to pick up knock.

 

yea stock tune, bad gas... ... headers i havent put those on yet... i know i know... dont beat on me for it lol

 

Yeah it's going to want good gas, just thought of that as I sat down to look at the forum.

Merry Christmas.

Bret

 

merry christmas to you as well... so could i just pour some 100+ octane gas in it and mix it around some... I dont think i can get away with draining the gas in the parking lot

 

Yeah or go run some 92-93 in there and just burn around in the car (not at WOT) to get that gas out of there.

Bret

 

awesome... Now if i could only get that dang tune to go through

 

Sounds like a good idea!

I wonder what's up with your computer connection?

 

Also LT4 KM might help a bit

 

My friend is a chemist for conico phillips (76 gasoline) and she told me that the 10 month old 91 octane in my tank was no longer good ESPECIALLY in any high compression environment. Straight from the horses mouth (dont tell her i called her a horse) she works in the chem lab that formulates and quality controls the fuel we all use.

awesome, im going to take it tonight and get some petro and pump up the tires and wash it off... then put around some... hopefully i can wash that crap out... HOPEFULLY it will not damage anything
