I have a LED knock gauge hooked up to my J&S Safeguard, but I haven't seen one that connects directly to the GM sensor(s).

The turbo Buicks came with a GM knock processor called the ESC module. This is where the Caspers gauge gets its information. Caspers may sell a complete package but their site isn't working for me.

MSD makes a knock meter for about $200. Comes with a 6 kHz GM sensor, and doesn't require the ESC module.

Livorsi Marine sells the Anson knock meter system, with a customized gauge. You can tell from their prices that they are dealing with a different clientele. Either that, or I'm giving my stuff away.
