I think you basically gotta live with it. I can run anything in my 93 245 when the ambient temperature is low. When summer comes around in Dallas, I have to run 89. Last year I was having pinging even with 93 and replaced the knock sensor like you and improved it greatly. Make sure you torqued it properly. As I remember, it was a pretty low value and required the use of an inch-pound torque wrench.
