I've got a gen IV lq9 built by TSP but for some reason when swapping over the 3 sensors on the side of the block they were on opposite sides of what they were on my ls2 that I was taking them off of. I know this is a dumb question but the 3 sensors on the block, are they all knock sensors? There are two on the passenger side and one on the driver side. I dunno if my sensors were backwards b/c I have a gto or if it was possible that i was looking at the one block upside down and it didn't click. Too late for me to go out and double check but glad to know there extension harness if I need it b/c that is one part that had me worried.
Word of advice DO NOT put an edelbrock timing cover on your motor. It took 2 weeks of work to get it clearanced to fit. I dont think Aaron at TSP will ever sell one of those again.

Is it a Gen III block setup as an Gen IV??? All LQ9 were Gen III. And was your GTO a LS1 version. There are two knock sensors on the side of the block for the Gen IV computer system. The 3rd sensor maybe the crank sensor. Its located above the starter of which both Gen III/IV have.
