Default Re: Help diagnosing engine knock

Quote:
When we had the head off we decided to go with a 5.5:1 head, but unfortunately after the install the engine now has a knock.
It could be a piston hitting the head. The test is to put the head on the block w/out a gasket and turn the engine over by hand to see if any of the pistons hit the head.
