Looking to get some positive suggestions / help with this problem. Here's the deal....
I am getting a knock sensor / misfire on my port engine only:
1>Usually only happens when engine is warm, under load, and between 2000-3500 RPM
2>When engine is idling, it almost sounds like there is a spark jumping around somewhere but unable to locate.
3>I am running 10-20% 110 octane mixed with 93.
4>The motors are low 8:0-1 and 5-6psi boost.
Any ideas, help, or suggestions would be thankful.

Are you sure its not actually knocking? Warm engine, low engine speed, heavy apache, possibly too much timing there? I dont see the need for race gas if its 8:1 with only 5-6lbs of boost. We been running that on 93 octane forever..with even more boost.

I actually think it's a backfire, makes a snap/pop noise when it does it but the knock sensor goes off.
