Just for the sensor kit it is $537 shipped. Its pricy, but I think of it as a supporting mod that needs to be done

I'm running the truck coils on mine.
I'll probably mount them to the valve covers.

The way I look at it is for the price of the DIY kit and supporting parts you can buy 1 1/2 optis or just do this and be done with it

Good choice on the truck coils, Kyle. I have them too. Im going to be making a CNC'd bracket out of aluminum to mount them to the stock valve covers. Im making up the file on Catia and am going to produce it using my uncles mill. If you need an extra set, I can make some for you, just pay for cost of material (unless I have some extra scrap laying around)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

Very cool Kyle! I'll be sure to check back every now and then.

Are you goin to be running 2 knock sensors now or just stick with 1? Also, what are you doing for the grounds, since the LS harness has seperate grounds

Not sure what I'm going to do with the knock sensors?
They say you have to drill a separate hole for the 2nd one because of clearance issues with the motor mounts but I'm not sure if I want to do that.

Really? Cant you just htread another one in on the drivers side of the block (where the coolant drain plug was). I dont remember the motot mount being that close to it
