sensors on 85 lg4

I have an 85 T/A with an lg4 and am changing motors but sticking with the ccc. I was wondering what are all of the sensors because I want to replace them all. I have heard that I should use a different knock sensor for a 350. Can I use the one from the tpi's? Thanks for your help and if possible I need this soon.

Go to the GM store nearest you and get the ZZZ engine retroft manual, in there it tells you what ESC K/S ecm to use.
then get a copy of Doug Roes QJet boodk to finishe tunig it right, mid 13s are easy

So what exactly do you need to hit the mid 13's like you said. I have a two piece rear main seal block. I it has a cam with and advertized duration of 278 and 288. The lift is .420 and .433 w/ 1.5 rockers. I am going to be putting a set of mildly ported center bolt valve cover heads on it temporarily till I can get somthing better. Unfortunatly I believe that they are swirl ports. They have 1.94 and 1.5 valves and I believe that they are 64 cc combustion chambers with stock style pistons. I will be temparily running the stock lg4 manifolds. I have the stock size exhaust in in the front and a slightly larger than stock custom catback with no muffler or cat. I know that this is far from optimal but I need to get my car going. I just bought most of the sensors new for it except for the knock sensor so if anyone know the right one to get for a 350 that would be helpful. I also bought new secondary rods and hanger for the carb. The trans has been rebuilt and has a shift kit. The corvette servo is in shipping on its way here now. I only have a 2.77 posi rear, but plan on upgrading to 3.45s. What do you think it will run with the parts that I have and what should be my first upgrades.(I plan on sfcs and then headers). But like I said, what exactly should it take for me to hit the mid 13s.

Thanks and sorry about the length,

Ben
