l98 vs lb9 knock sensors?
I wanted to know who knows what the differance is betweeen the two? I know they show up as two differant part numbers and you should swap them when you do the tpi 305-tpi350 swap. I am really confused because it looks like everyone with a 350 tpi 5-speed or 6-speed is using the 305- t-5 bin as a starting point and adjusting fuel and spark.
The way I see it the 305 knock sensor should be used then right?
or is the 350 one less sensitive due to the larger bore of the eng.?
I have done searches but, no one really says what the differance is. just to use the 350 one due to it having a differant knock setup. this is for a 88 in mind but, should hold true for all the MAF setups

So what is different?
Is it that the cyl are larger in bore and create a different freq of knock....
Or do I have no clue?

And there are several different series of sensors, having different internal resistances.
