Knock sensor

I already have a superchip flip chip and am looking for a knock sensor (without having to buy a new chip). Does anyone know where I can find a knock sensor for my L?

Cost???

Im not really sure how to reply to this but, all our L have a knock sensor on them from the factory. None of them are turned on because no one has been able to get them to work correctly not even Ford, Ford would have gladly used them if they would just work with our set up.

Cool

HI!... MSD make one.

"Put an ear inside your engine.

Engine Knock Alert System

Protect your powerplant from harmful detonation with MSD's Engine Knock Alert system. A knock sensor is installed into an engine block drain or access hole, and relays excessive detonation to a dash mounted controller unit. The sensor is tunable to the noise pattern of your engine, so you know if there's excess detonation right away. The system comes complete with the sensor, adapter and controller, and is compatible with four, six or eight cylinder engines with 12 volt electrical systems." end quote.

Diablo is still working on it I think, I know JL isn't ready to sell his yet. I just call him last week.

Sweet Neal, Thanks. That is pretty much what I am looking for. Does anyone have any ideas of where the sensor could go in the L?
Also does anyone know of a better looking unit?

A big white box isn't exactly what I was hoping for. Too bad they don't have on that is styled more like the autometer guages.

It's already there

SVTMoonshine:

The knock sensor is already installed.

You just need a chip to use it.
