Default overheating & knocking

well yesterday while i was driving up to my house on I-84, i noticed my cars temp going up. so i pull over to see if my radiator hose came off, checked my fluid level, everything was fine, so after a while i started driving again. until i hear my V-tec crack with a very loud knocking sound. if anyone has any suggestions i would appreciate it thanks.

Should have stopped right there and called a flatbed...

If its overheating and you still drove it, into VTEC no less, you almost definitely fragged your engine.

So, did it keep knocking? or was it one knock so to speak, and what about the overheating? Need more info.
