If you are talking about the PISTON RODS then they will not make any noise. The engine will just wear the pistons and cylinder walls until you have a problem with oil comsupition. If the push rods or bent then you will have a engine miss and rocker arm noise in the valve covers/ clatting noise.

What is the knocking sound on a 350 chevy it sounds like a rod but then it stops rods dont just stop knocking do they?
Some causes will:A leaky lifter will pressure up and quit, and can sound like a rod knock when the clearance is bad enoughA collapsed piston skirt will quiet down when the engine warms upA rod can knock under load or start up and quite down when oil pressure is applied. Its only going to get worse though.

Crankshafts are usually always forged for strength. Connecting Rods and pistons are usually always cast in normal consumer vehicles. Race and High Performance vehicles have very exacting designs and are usually built differently.

What may cause a 1997 Chevy Malibu engine to makes loud clicking sound like if the lifters had no oil but the clicking goes away every now and then?
um, it could be that the engine is cold and needs to allow lubrication of all the parts on start, you could be using wrong oil, oil could be low. push come to shove it could be as bad as main berrings are gone or even a bent rod, so start with the oil and hope for the best, any bent rods or main berrings gone it would be cheaper to buy an engine from salvage

Can carbon steel rods be bent?
It depends on the precise material and the dimensions of the rod
Why would a 2000 dodge caravan shake when hitting a certain speed?

Bent pushrod on one valve and the rocker arm next to it is very loose even tho it is tightened all the way What could this mean?
First of all, Chevy rocker arms NEVER tighten all the way up. You probley have push rods BENT on both valves. But it sounds like the camshaft lobes are worn off and the bottom of the lifters are worn out. Replace bent push rods and cam and lifters.
What increases tensional loading on connecting rods?
Engine (Piston) speed and things like ring drag

It could be some sort of liquid in the cylinder. It will cause it to hydraulic and bend rods.
Would it be cheaper to buy a rebuilt head or try to rebuild it yourself if there are broken rocker arms and probably a bent or broken rod?
Hey Tim==Rocker arms and push rods don't come with a rebuilt head. You will have to buy these anyhow. However the biggest thing is if the valve guides are worn or not. Stick a valve in the guide and wiggle it and if it moves over about .020 the guides need replaced which requires a machine shop. GoodluckJoe if you have a bent or broken rod, fixing the head will not help. A bent rod means you need to rebuild the engine. Before you rebuild the engine, look at buying a crate engine from an aftermarket supplier like jegs.com.
