I'm still trying to find the knock in my engine. Since everything in the bottom end looked fine,I removed the head.Everything good there too. I now have the pistons and rods out. They are very clean, as is the rest of the engine. I can see no cracks or any other problems there. There was NO ridge at the top of the cylinders, another sign that the engine has low miles since being remanufactured. I have another set of pistons,rods, and rings that I might use when I reassemble the engine. I'm not sure what I will do next.
