Well about your idle, with 60s bro youll have a type of mifire, it is really hard to tune them because of there short pulses. one thing to for your knock, see why, fuel, timing, iat2z. but more then likly it is your timing. let us know how it goes

Yeah, tuning the misfires out when you have 60s is almost impossible due to their min short pulse width. As long as it doesn't misfire when driving you should be fine.

As far as knock goes, were you tuned with a wideband? How much timing is being commanded when you are getting knock? Alot of times with a 2.8 you have to run a little richer due to the extra heat it is creating unless you are running meth.

exactly i second that one, i run a 11.3 at top end and i run a 12.2 at bottom end. but check timing, i bet since it got warmer you started creating knock because your iat2s and high timing. or plugs could be bad

I was thinking about changing the plugs, the misfire is only at idle but l have had a few CEL while l was driving
I was tuned with a wideband, l have been re-tuned by this guy at least 3-4 times..Im not sure what my timing is set at??

Im getting re-tuned april 17 or 18th so we will see he can fix it, plus im installing my h/e and dual pass asap

Keep you guys posted

Thanks for your ideas

You could order an OTT pcm for your mods. I know canned tunes aren't "ideal", but it's pretty damn good!

Everything rnjmur has said so far is 100% true.
