Default LTs, KM, & False Knock?

If my cars Hooker Long Tubes constantly keep hitting my cars K member, will my computer read this as false knock...... I also do have an lt4 knock module...... The Long Tubes used to vibrate and rattle only on take off, but after today that i installed the Borla catback the LT's now rattle/vibrate more while driving, not just on take off..... THX

could be but youll need to scan it to make sure. you might want to see about getting new motor mounts to help stop the vibes and possibly keep the headers from hitting the k.
