Sorry to tell you Headrage, but that's the sign of a pulled head stud. That's pretty run of the mill for these mag cased 2.7L engines. You will need to rebuild your case. Consider my above post for a couple of options. You could try to re-torque the head nuts, and it may last long enough for you to buy another motor. Be careful what you buy - you will get a lot of advice to buy a 3.0L aluminum block motor, but that may need rebuilding also. That said, if you need options, this is the place to find them - lots of really good advice available here.

Best luck - Rex.
