So today is a sad day and I'm trying to figure out whether the knocking I'm hearing is rod knock or a cracked flywheel. Anyone experienced either? For the past few months, even after swapping in new mounts, I've had trouble from time to time getting out of 1st gear without the entire car shaking. Knocking first started today at just around 2k rpms and was very subtle. The next time I started it is when it became more apparent and was loud throughout the entire rev range. Also noticed while driving it home revs would drop about twice as fast and had lost at least 25% of power. If anyone can throw in their 2 cents it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks guys, couldn't ask for better responses and I appreciate that more than you know. gonna try the screwdriver thing and most likely drop the oil pan. Either way i think this ends in me retiring my 6gc, head was rebuilt less than 10,000 miles ago and i think I'm done dumping money into her.
