Could it be possible that my Knock sensors are bad?

Could be, or you could have something hitting something and making a noise that's making them think there is knock.

Here is a log file. I did a little reving while it was in park. There was no knock. but you should be able to see whatever it is you need to look at. I did a WOT run through most of 1st gear. Let me know what you think. Thanks a lot man.

Well, your not running lean in that log, but you defiantly have some sort of KR issue when ever you put a bit of a load on the motor. The timing is not to high, but makes me think maybe bad gas, or bad knock sensors??? Not sure. Did you ask Jesse about it?

He didn't seem to be to helpfull. He wasn't sure of the problem, he just kept saying that he tuned everything for my exact setup... which it looks like he did. Its just that I have some sort of KR issue... I think my knock sensors are bad... If im not running lean, then its gotta be a false reading.. Is there any other way to determine if im getting false knock or not?

I can't say I'm much help . Just looks like any time you put much load on it, it maxs out the KR. Can you hear any noises or rattling or anything?

Not that i've really heard..... I think the only thing im hearing is when its trying to retard timing when im beatin on it. I dont really hear any pinging or anything like that... Could valvetrain cause knock?

Valve train noise will usually give you random anytime KR, not just when your getting on it. You could 0 out tables B6204 and B6205. That would basically disable KR, but your playing with fire if it does knock, as it wouldn't pull any timing. The only protection from knock you would have is your ears and you foot.
