i have always had knock problems. i tried 2 gallons of xylene to 1/2 tank of 92 oct. and knock was gone. so was $16.00 in xylene. :drinking:

jesus christ you guys! the only thing bad is the valve seals. :roll:

so b.g. do you thing this intake will work better than what we have?

you never said what wires you had and are they on right? no cracked #3 plug.

did you set the timing? how about vacuum leaks? :roll:
