[QUOTE="32vApe, post: 15423965, member: 72912"] That deep of a knock is definitely coming from the bottom of the engine. Sounds like a rod bearing. For that to happen that soon after a rebuild, something was not machined properly, or installed properly. With the type of damage the original engine had, the shrapnel from all the broken parts is sent through every little nook and cranny in the engine. A new oil pump and oil cooler should have been installed. All oil the gallery plugs in the block and heads need to be removed and the oil gallerys need to be scrubed out to remove all small contaminants. Any of those small pieces can block oil flow and starve bearings of oil. Modular Ford engines have very tight clearances. [/QUOTE]
