Re: what is a lt4 km?

It's a little computer chip in a module that plugs into your PCM. LT4 KM = LT4 knock module. It replaces the factory LT1 knock module, and is less sensitive along with offering better true knock sensing capability. Costs ~$30 and is worthwhile mod.

Gives a better, truer knock readout for you pcm, often saving you a few degree of false knock retard, thus giving a couple extra horsepower.

Easy. Two bolts out of the pcm to remove the cover. Take out old one, put new one in. Takes 10 minutes.

GM part # 16214681

Can get it from any dealer, or place that carries GM parts
