This is helpful and useful thanks.

Agree that knock is not an issue, assuming you have full control over fuel, and proper tune. But that's not the situation in real world, hence the desire for one additional input.

The car will be street, mostly, but, aggressively driven from sea level to 7k ft elevations, in 60-100 degree weather. I live in SoCal and that's the hills, canyons, and deserts I drive my cars in. And, our fuel here, is kinda crappy, 91 is the best, E85 is available but only in urban areas mostly.
So I'd like the engine to be able to adapt in modern ways given very diverse driving conditions.

The current engine right now has carbs, and, frankly they suck. Good at sea level, don't like going up to the peak of angeles crest.
