oooooh...
hmmm....
sounds like maybe he got it hot enough to warp a rod (if even temporarily) enough to kill a rod bearing, thus causing a knock. But of coarse, that's just throwing out a worse-case-scenario guess, lol, but it sounds logical
I think you're best bet MIGHT just be to drop the pan and check for play in the rods, if the sound is really that concerning

sounds odd to me...
296k original mile on my 22re before my rebuild, and mine didn't knock at all, and that's with a cracked rod bearing too, lol, and I beat the hell out of it
so I dunno man
