I just had the same sound. Pulled it apart and found a spun rod bearing. Picked up a katech 416... had it running in 3 days....

What rpm have you been spinning it too? When and how did it start knocking?
Looks like a certain percentage of these motors are not holding up to the big rpm. It's a roll of the dice.

Where you just driving it normally when it happened? Oil pump maybe?

you already have a nice top end. id pull the motor out and tear it down. If the block isnt hurt, id take it to a machine shop just to clean it up real good and get a new rotating assembly and put it back together. It will cost you a lot less than what you paid for that GPI MAX Package and you will have youre car rolling better than ever

Ok guys, I just realized there may be some serious misconceptions here...This problem has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of GPI's products..Shit like this just happens from time to time, no rhyme no reason..I'm not blaming GPI at all.. I personally cannot speak highly enough about their products, and im not trying to be some fan boy, they're well proven within the community..sometimes stock parts fail..so chill out
