just pulled the truck out to take it for a cruise again.... pulled it out of the garage and did the good ol' routine checks for things, then when i poped the hood, it had one hell of a good sounding knock to it. pulled the valve covers and checked all of the rockers, and they are all good, so while i had them off, i ran it and jumped back up to the engine to get a sound, and it sounded internal.? i couldnt have thrown a rod, seing how it does run good, and it doesnt miss or run weird? correct? also just for shits, i checked the timing. and the instant i threw it on there the mark was WAAAAY high. high as in, i had to bring the light up to 40 ish degrees to get them close. could the cam have jumped a tooth or something?
