I had a hand held scanner my knockcounts were only 17 in fifteen minutes of run time that's getting on it a few times never detected knock
It only looks like 6000 where you lifted, either way if the dyno was off or your gauges normally you'd see the power fall off gradually after peak, yours nose dives after climbing hard which makes me think you need to keep spinning it.

Keeping that 4 degrees out at all times is one way to go, the other way is to just pull it as the nitrous is activated, it'll really help your NA power. A 6AL can do that, but be careful of counterfeit 6ALs, there was a big article about them in HOTROD this month.

The pics of the plugs dont show the actual part that you need to see to be able to judge them. The ground strap just gives timing indications. SO you need to get a pic of the bottom of the ceramic.
