The round piece is the sensor. This is the knock module located in the PCM.

so how much work is it to change that module, just pull out the pcm and plug that it or does the cover have to come off.....what it be better to just wait and get a chip and have it "desentsitized".......

No "chips" on 96s. You can do it through programming on the PCM though.

Installing the module is pretty easy. There's a little cover on the pcm held in place by two bolts. Take those bolts off and voila.

Yep, it's OK as long as you don't have it the other way around. (stock lt1 knock module and lt4 knock sensor on a 94-95 car. Or even lt4 knock module and lt4 knock sensor....)
