knock problem

[ediaz191]

I just swapped a k20z3 and im having some knocking problems the engine is basically stock. I uploaded a stock k20a calibration and just changed the injector size and the map sensor so it idles smooth but the issue is as soon as i put load on it it starts to knock i dont know what it can be can anyone help i need it to be able to get it to the dyno

have been retarding ignition where there is knock but the knock count keeps increasing im not sure if there is a problem with the knock sensor

It is knocking everywhere, so either the knock sensor is broken or there is something mechanically loose either in the engine or on the engine.

i have been retarding the ignition and it has gotten better the knock count has gone down. the engine was just assembled but can to much retarding the ignition cause any other problems

It does look normal now.
