slant 6 knock

thanks to all that have responded. i am taking it this saturday to a local guy who supposedly is the local guru on mopar engines and have him listen. i appreciate the offer for parts but before i would fix the six i would put my 340 in as I don't need the car accept for pleasure driving and was just hoping it was an exhaust leak. Pulling the plug wire would cause the cylinder not to fire,with less compression and quiet an exhaust leak???? Is this a possibility or just wishful thinking???????? thanks again to all!!!! your mopar brother WALT :salut:

Another 60/40 call? Your right, pulling the plug wire will quiet your exhaust from that cylinder; but then again, pulling the plug wire means no power stoke which therefore puts less rock and roll on your piston pin, piston rod ect. I think ya know what I mean.....But, wishful thinking or hoping is not a bad thing. I will cross my fingers for ya, :prayer: and hope for the best. You will have to let us "all" know when you find out.
