    I guess if it's a chipped piston removing timing wouldn't make it stop knocking...I flipped the upper mounts when I installed my headers helped a lot

    agreed. I can pull some timing and see if the KR doesn't change. I am planning on flipping the uppers tomorrow after work.

    Where can I find lower mounts for the engine and trans? I see the uppers for sale all over but not the lowers/trans.

    Actually, pulling timing did get rid of KR for me; I had to pull quite a bit, but I do WOT pulls without knock during normal driving. When I took it to the track, after a couple runs and the blower was heat soaked, I ended up getting a couple degrees.
