Light knock when rich at 14psi, maybe spark blow out,
Man i really think its high egt's causing it, specially since its mostly with dump closed, or also another possibility is what I was told on my thread with my misfiring issue which was, reversion from the high exhaust pressure.

You may be right.
The 10 psi coloum is the only one I dont get the false knock with the dump closed. So I am going to start to ramp up the timing on that coloum. Im at 17-18 deg adv and will add more as I go. It feels very strong!
I am going to tune the 14.7psi coloum for use with the dump open only. Right now the timing is 13-15 deg adv, which isnt too bad, I can add more. The AFR with the dump open needs to be richend up since I was tuning it for running with the dump closed. If I still get the knock once thats all straight I may try some race gas just to be sure. If it shows the false knock with the race gas then its boost-a-spark time!

Also, I was going back through my notes and I have my NGK LFR7AIX 2-step colder plugs gapped at .032 , I guess I can try to close them down to .025ish and see if that helps.
