Found out what my strange knocking noise was at 4000 rpm – originally thought it was big ends or piston slap but no it’s - WATER.

I have taken the head off and it looks fine, no cracks. I had the heads skimmed 700 miles ago so it's either a warped head (again) or the mechanic didn't fit it correctly. Water only appears to be leaking into one of the cylinders.

Does anyone have a head lying around?
