No spark knock...Mike means spark blow out.. The plugs are a little old(and maybe gapped at 45 ) and we were seeing a high rpm spark blowout around 14psi...New plugs, gapped at 35 will fix it right up...

I have been looking at this fuel system. How difficult was the install and can you use the stock fuel rail covers?

Install is fairly straight forward. You cannot use the factory fuel rail covers without some modification.
