I was wondering where I should put a knock sensor on the B18B block for the standalone for tuning purposes. Pics are a great help and not that old "alternator bracket" one. I want an actual decent location that works like it should. Also looking for responses from people who actually have done a similar job and not just guessing because I don't want to tap into oil lines or anything else important.

 

ttt cmon someone has to know

 

ttt again

 

I drilled and tapped into the block for my KS. There was a spot on the block for this.

 

do you have ne pics?

That place is ok for getting a stock ecu to work just enough to run the engine, but for getting an accurate knock reading for tuning, I know you have to be against a cylinder, I have heard the #3 is where to go but I am not sure where to tap without hitting any oil passages.

 

no I aint got any pics. if you got a picture of a LS block then I can point it out for you.

 

hes got a pretty good one there

 

I believe thats where I put mine. Just dont drill too deep, and use washers so that the knock sensor is firmly bolted in.

 

Thanks thats a great help!
