okay i know this is not an astro but this is serious: it is a 1989 chevy k-1500 ext. cab. 4 wheel drive with the 350 v-8 it is a z-71 truck. here is the problem when cold there is no adnormal noises but when warmed up it seems to be making a knocking noise a idle when in gear with foot on brake but in park there is no knocking noise when rev there is no knocking noise.

I like Rob's first suggestion, check the motor mounts first thing
