I just put in my new headers. They are Doug's headers full length 1 3/4 primaries. Okay, now my problem has occured. My knock sensor is bangin against the headers. If i take out the knock sensor and replace it with a plug, the headers will fit. I really don't want to do this to the car because of the timing ordeal. I just want to know if there are any ways of beating this problem. Maybe if I take out the knock sensor then move the headers into place, maybe it will be able to get put back in? I know someone has had to have had this problem.

One last note. If i get the headers in and the knock sensor, will I have any interference from the headers? No right. I just saw someone saying that in another thread i searched.

 

you are my hero

I dont know if i can help with the knock sensor issue, but im looking into getting those headers as well and just wondering how is the fitment, any other issues and do you have any pics of the install from to and bottom?

thanks a lot

try putting the knock sensor on the other side of the engine theres a threaded in plug maybe on that side you'll have more clearance then just legthen your knock sensor wire is all

 

I actually have more clearance on that side. I had practically no problems with the headers. They are a tight fit here and there, no biggie, but do plan on spending the weekend on it. I only had one minor/major issue. You will have to cut the lines from the oil cooler. It rubs right on it. not a good thing.
