I think I broke it...
So, the day before my birthday I was heading home and just barely got on the freeway and heard a knock. I thought I might make it home if I babied it; I didn't make it to the next exit.
Well, I finally pulled the engine today. I have three nice-sized holes in the oil pan. I found a 97 Vortec to put in it, and while I have it apart I'm going to clean up the engine compartment and fix a few other things. |

Yes, I think you broke it. Good time to clean up the engine compartment.
They don't call it a rod knock for nothing
