Default Clutch chattering making knock sensor go off????

I just put in a new spec 2 clutch and its chattering only on takeoff, which I think is normal till its broken it, but my service engine light is on now for the knock sensor. I was wondering if the clutch chatter would make this sensor go off. Any input would be appreciated.

I never had an issue, do you have a 98? They had real sensitive knock sensors.

You should've read some of my posts about the spec II clutch. Biggest mistake I ever made. I have about 2-3 k on mine, and the thing chatters jsut as much as it did on day 1. Never again will I buy a spec clutch. Heck, I wont install one if one was given to me for free, thats how much I love them.

That just what I needed to read. I have 260 miles on mine, and I really haven't seen any improvement since Day 1 to expect it to go away at 500 miles. I am ready to pull it and see if the retailer will take it back for a credit. I am seriously debating going back to a stock and new LS6 clutch or try the LS7.
