Re: [ENG] Hall effect dist, knock sens. into 77rocc

["Chris DeLong" <green536@hotmail.com>]

Dont forget modifying the intake for the larger throttle body. You must 
replace the throttle body to attach the throttle switches (necessary 
component for the knock sensor system). Also I would not advise using the 
'85 system. There is a wire that you will need to snip in the harness for 
more power. I dont remember which wire but it is a wire that jumpers 2 pins 
at the harness connector for the knock brain. '86 and newers do not have 
this wire.
