Knock sensor and Coolant Temp switch

I was wondering if any one knew of any new locations on the block that I could re-locate the knock sensor and coolant temp switch. I have Hooker super comp headers and they are too close to the connectors on the drivers side, so I need to re-locate them. Any ideas?

I know where the sensors are originally, I want to know where are some other places I can put them.

Couldn't you locate them in the fitting openings of the intake water passages?

I will have to check it out, I can't leave them where they are at now, I was thinking that the knock sensor would have to be on the block, I am hoping there are some plug holes on the drivers side that I could install them.
