Well, guys. Today it happened, the tiny little head tick I had on the passenger side that I am getting heads machined for blew today. I was heading into work, just cruising, enjoying the weather and my 99 cobra with 90k on it developed a knock. A BAAADDDDD knock. I am hoping I bent a valve, but I have a feeling I am not that lucky and spun a rod bearing. I am off Thursday and Friday, so I will start tearing into it. May just end up going with an upgraded crate 302 instead of another modular motor. Anyone have any inputs, anything is welcome.
UPDATE!!!
I have the car torn apart, the passenger cylinder closest to the firewall is lodge in the cylinder and the rod is broken off so, now I have to rip out the motor for sure and price everything out. A coyote swap isn't a bad looking choice at this point.
