Jacking Engine and sensor
What is the correct way to jack a motor to get headers to fit? And what is the sensor on the middle passenger side of block?

Putting a flat board across the bottom of the oil pan and using a floor jack works.
That's the knock sensor.
That's the knock sensor.

The more level it is, the better, but I've done it as described.

Does the knock sensor just unbolt out? Will I get a SES if I did break it/ mess it up? Thanks

It unscrews. Turn it from the hex on the base, not by the body.
