Re: need help. loud hitting noise when starting

If your timing is too advanced then yes it could cause the head gasket to blow, among other things. A lot of old timers time by ear, but it's not something I practice seeing how a timing light is pretty cheap. I wonder if you didn't jump timeing when that motor locked up.
