Knock Sensor Location 1.6 NA
I've got a recently rebuilt N/A 1.6 motor thats running Wiesco pistons (.40 over and .5 bump in compression). I've got a MSPNP in the car and want to add a knock sensor to make sure I can keep tabs on detonation as I start to fine tune.
I ordered a NB (99-05) OEM knock sensor and am looking for a good location to mount it. I've heard/read that on the block b/w the #2 and #3 cyl is the ideal location.
One thing i noticed while looking around the motor is that there are threaded holes on the head that match up perfect with the knock sensor... question is will it work here or is there to much "noise" from the valve train to pick up the detonation pulses?
Attached are pics of the location I'm talking about as well as the style sensor I have...
