Melt down maybe?

So I was coming home from being stateside late last nite bored, (just under 2000 miles in 2 days), and tired and ended up in a race , just to amuse myself, with a little foreign sports car of some sort. After impressing myself with atop gps speed of 121mph, I slowed back down to my cruising speed of around 77mph. About 5 minutes after the run, I pulled into a coffee shop for 5 minutes and when I started my truck, it had a knocking noise in engine. Drove another 150 miles to home, never got any worse. No bass pressure, no filings in bass, besides the noise, it's working perfect. It sounds louder on driver side close to half way. Gonna pull her apart on Monday. What do you think? Donald

I'll see Monday if he can get some sizes off them. I'm think I'm going back to a 12 valve with the inline pump. My head is screwed and it's going to be too much money to put into an old truck. So I'll will be listing some parts for sale soon, 3 month old injector pump, edge juice/ hot unlock, block, crank, etc. I don't know how much work it will be to get the lock-up to work, anybody know rite off hand? Am I crazy going back to a 12 valve? I have an old truck I'm junking is the biggest reason why I'm going with the 12 valve. Donald

what is wrong with the head(warped, cracked)?

It's like 2500 miles away from me, so I that wont work. I found a head for $250 but by the time you got it checked out, I wouldn't be too far off the price of a new one. There's a complete truck for sale, a 98 dually 2wd, asking $2500 I was thinking on calling about. Donald
