How much did it end up costing you to fix this?? mine does the same thing
-
same thing just happened to my '01 gt. i cant tell from your video, but mine only knocks while under load (hitting the throttle) when cold but when i warms up it does it all the time. did yours do this too? im just trying to diagnose it. im still making payments on it and i cant even drive it
-
@csanchez805 How did that happen Over revving or just driving?
-
Did u ever find out wat the knock was? How much was it to fix cuz my car almost sounds the same?
-
OMG!! that is a hot rodders worse sound!!!
please post how much the repair was?
-
once its knocking, it only gets worse. you should have kept up with oil levels before it happened. lesson learned.
-
Mine just started doing this today and I was watching this vid and the sound is identical..made me cringe. I'm going to put some oil in it tomm. Will this make it stop or will I have to fix something?

my cousin had a 99 4.6L GT he baught it brand new. then it started to knock after it had only 2000 miles! Yet the ford dealer refused to cover it under warrnty because he went to the track the day it started. long story short we had the motor apart to find that the #7 rod end cap was way too loose. he filed a lawsuite & got $30,000. go figure.

Well my situation is now worse. Making that noise non-stop, got louder also. Do you have any write-up's on fixing this?
-
fixed a while back. took about for days total time. pretty simple if you know how to work on engines. :)
My car sounds pretty much exactly the same (vids posted on my profile) I have bought an MMR600 shortblock. Where you able to reuse the heads? Im hoping to be able to swap everyone over onto the new shortblock.

we actually got lucky and it was only one spun bearing(#8). the only thing we had to replace were the bearings, crank, and bolts. it didn't affect the heads at all so you should be able to swap. hope that helps.

How many miles did you have on it?

it only had 30k on it. we bought it from a couple that didn't take care of it at all.
