heres my prediciment, i was gonna buy both the cam and knock sensor off this dark phantom guy but now hes been banned for being a dick and idk if i should send this money order to himm
heres wat im deling with

ok about 2 weeks ago i was driving home from work when my alternator belt came off on the freeway. so i got off said freeway into a parking lot. by this time my engine was starting to over heat. so i called a friend to take me back to work (autozone) to buy a new belt. get the belt go back to tib put belt on start it up and it doesnt want to stay running below 2k rpm. it was acting like it wasa bad tps and was sending the wrong signal cause the car to misfire. next day i drove my truck and bought new tps. didnt fix problem, btw tps is a kefico. now previous to this happening this is the maintence i have done to answer a few questions before they are asked again.
timing 4k ago
crank sensor 6months ago
full tune up , not just oil change. plugs wires, oil, and trans fluid flush
trans swap in july
clutch swap 2 years ago

so ive narrowed it down to one of 2 senssors as bothh send signals to ecu to control timing and fuel ignition sequense.
1. cam sensor
or
2. knock sensor

heres some vids for a rough discription

I know this is a long shot, but maybe borrow another ECU and try swapping it? I don't think they don't go bad very often, but who knows..
