    Default Is this real knock?

    Hello.

    I have been testing and tuning for the past 6 months, car is an Australian HSV VZ Clubsport, engine is LS2 with E40 pcm.

    I have noticed some knock occurring in my log, it starts at frame 1974. knock peaks at 5.7 and then ramps down to 0. No audible knock was detected.

    So is this real knock?

    How can I better understand what is happening?

    Thanks.

    Manuel

    Does not look like it to me.

    ECM may be picking up some noise that sounds almost like knock...

    Same question here. Just getting started tuning (novice) on new motor using LS1 type knock sensors on the side of an LS3 block. LS1 car pcm. I have tamed down the timing tables or so I think. 10.5:1 CR, running 91 octane pump gas (highest available here) The machine shop made the cylinder bores slightly looser than factory, and the rod and mains are on the + side too so I'm wondering if that is working against me.

    The problem with this is that the gate window is completely incorrect now and no tuning software has the tables to fix it. What os are you using?

    We don't have KS data for LS1/LS3 crossed sensors.

    I am using the original OS that came with the car from factory, 1998 LS1A. I wonder if a slipping clutch might be picked up and cause KR too?

    I had too thick of a shim behind slave cylinder, twin mcleod was slippping a little... ARGGG

    I believe they are very interested, I know of various people running crossed sensors.

    Thanks.
