Has any one done, or know how to add a Casper Knock Gauge to a non computer controlled engine? Is it possible to ty into the factory retard box for a gauge? What are some options for me? I plan to go to blow through this winter and would really like to have some sort of knock warning. My ears are not any good!
 
You will probably need to talk with John Spina at Caspers to see if it can be done with the old Turbo Control Center (TCC).

They can be run without an ECM. You just need a knock sensor and ESC module. The gauge taps into the signal from the ESC module before it reaches the ECM. But then you would have to choose between the TCC or the gauge. (Maybe you could run both off one sensor - John would know.)
