Real Knock vs Fake Knock

Post by kial007 »

I just got my stroked F20C up and running and I'm getting a ridiculously high knock count. I'm using Skunk 2 cams and valvetrain and after doing some searching on this forum, I found some posts about fake knock being picked up in K series engines with aftermarket cams. I'm thinking this may be what I'm seeing but I want to make sure it is a known issue. Am I correct and any idea what causes this? Thanks.

Try making drastic changes in the ignition timing and see if it goes away. If it does it was knock.
