Then It Goes Away

It Started Doing This After I Shifted From 3rd To 2nd Gear And Broke And Bent Some Pushrods

What did you replace after the problem? did you replace all of the pushrods or just the bad ones?? did you change springs? rockers? a lot of the time when going to harder springs and pushrods etc. you have a lot more valvetrain noise, how long does it do it? is the problem off and on or every time you start it? just need more info before any problem can be found

I Replaced All The Pushrods And Springs
It Does It After Car Warms Up And Every Time I Turn On The Car And Drive It For About 25 Miles Then It Will Quit
Its A Pretty Loud Sound
I Have A Air/fuel Guage And When It Starts Knocking It Goes Crazy Back And Forth

Thanx
