depends on if your car is OBD2. If its the top knock sensor on an OBD2 car it will put u in limp mode.(no vtec and retarded timing past 4k)

Why go through all that?
Find a used Knock sensor in the marketplace or craigs, If the motor is out it will be cake to change.

if its the secondary knock sensor (which I assume it is because he broke it putting in the motor) then its a piece of cake to install even when the motor is in.

@OP I suggest you go to a junkyard or go on CL and pick one up cheap, or look on HMP somebody has got to have one lol.
