Three questions

1. Where is the knock sensor on the 3.1?
2. Do the Edelbrock #4488 valve covers fit a 3.1?
3. Has anyone purchased the Pacesetter headers? The website lists catalog #70-1206 (349.95) and 72C1206 (Armor coated) (502.95)? I'm fairly certain that that they will fit my 3.1

I will bet a six pack of suds that the difference is in the EGR mounting on the '90-'92. Uses the digital EGR.

In other words, they haven't tested the headers on a 3.1 car so therefore they can't call them "emissions compliant"

BUT I bet they bolt right up to the heads and all!

has anyone heard more about the headers for us? will the y-pipe fit both manual and automatic transmissions? there was a post a while back where KED85 mentioned that it may not fit for manuals. just wondering if thats been cleared up. i emailed them but have not heard back.
