Got a couple questions....
First one is when I'm rolling in 4th or 5th gear I hear what I would describe as a "spark knock". I only hear it in a higher rpm and when I give it gas. Example I was cruising in 4th and went to make a pull as soon as I hit the gas I heard it but quickly went away.....any ideas...problem or just normal???
Second.....back to cruising in 4th... I was gonna make a pull and when I hit the gas it took off fine and fast but as I was excellerating it felt like the trans slipped or I guess maybe it could of missed idk felt like the trans slipped but after that minor slip/miss it continued to pull hard.....any ideas, input would be greatly appreciated. ..thanks

Welcome to tech.
First one - that was exactly what mine did for a while. I figured it out by accident - the PCV was bad and a bunch of oil was going into the intake manifold. I thought I poured a quart out of the intake when I took it off.
Second one - from your description sounds like the clutch starting to slip.
