Default LS1Edit V1.3 - Knock Volume

Has anybody tried using knock volume in LS1Edit to reduce knock?

I have a 98Z, and get consistent 4deg knock. I have new knock sensors and my O2s read between .910-.925

Thanks,
Kyung

i have a 98 and almost always get 4deg max knock and my o2's read .940's with headers. o2's cant be trusted anyways

whats your timming at wot? i dont know if 98's try to get 30deg at wot and just knock until down closer to 24 or 26deg

have you tried seafoam? i have heard a little soap and water pulled in with a vacume line will really clean carbon off? i will be testing this soon.

If it is the dreaded 98 false knock then your knock is maxed at WOT. Deadening the KR doesn't really help.

The best fix that I have seen so far is to upgrade the knock sensors. If that doesn't work you can run a 'tricked' timing table as stated above or disable your KR where you are making power

MAX KR vs RPM --- Zero all points above 4800 RPM. This will disable the 4 deg knock under performance conditions.

Good Luck

Hey guys, I just ditch my AIR & EGR off of my 98 and I no longer have the dreaded 4* knock anymore. Not sure why it cured it, but it did.

I sometimes see as low as 16 deg.

I will try the max kr vs. rpm first.

Thanks,
