Question help for the new guy...bad knock sensor
hello everybody

yes I am a total LS1 newbie...car's mostly stock...anyways

ok...got a trouble code and my friend scanned it with his predator...got a bad knock sensor I think the code # was P0327 or P3027 I dunno...anyways, what do I do to yank the intake manifold off??? and would it pay to get an LS6 or LSX on a minor bolt on car??

I MIGHT get a small cam soon, but nothin too big...

thanks in advance

Yes. If you are getting a LS6 intake they do not have one anyway, so you may as well get ahead of the game and do this mod now.
