I believe the temp corrections on the PFC are not as accurate as they should be. You are also pushing a lot of mods for an untuned base map (!) You need to go to a dyno with a wideband A/F sensor and see what your A/F ratios are looking like. You might need to adjust the temp correction or add a bit more fuel in the cells you are getting knock in.

You had better get over into the PFC forum immediately before you pop that engine. Especially running the stock map @ 14psi with your mods.
