Ouch..First you need to find out if the head is even salvagable.

That looks exactly like the motor the user 'k_motor' sold me. From what I've gathered, it was in his brother's car, boosted & not treated well (*iron* studs used to post the sleeves), and the knocking lasted a week till it tossed a rod while I was cruising at 60mph. Totoally stock ecu, intake, head - I just thought the rockers were causing the noise. The motor that was in this car when I bought it also had a hole in it, cyl #2, D16z6. That hole was from the previous owner's BF reving it to 9k, but it also had some old skool chip in it (which I threw out) that had seen (caused) 2 other motors to blow.

My point is its usually a bad tune that beats on the bearings due to detonation. It could be from previous abuse (like my 'k_motor' block), or the existing tune (like the block the 'k_motor' one replaced). Unless you tune the new motor with more timing retard or get custom pistons that drop compression to 8:1, it probably won't survive either.

Take the motor apart & find out.
Your problem could be anything from rod bolt failure to who knows what....

if you can salvage the head, then toss it onto a d15b7 block and be down with it.
