Re: a loud BANG
Expensive! It sounds like you drove your car with no water in it. You could have warped the block, heads or both. Is the water coming out where the head mates to the block? If the water is pouring out it shouldn't be hard to find the exact spot it's leaking from. After the smoke (steam?) cleared did you check the water level or just drive it home?
