Well man i put some 93 half a tanks worth and it cleared about 95% of it up.
It does it at initial acceleration for like a sec if that. Then it stops and it just sounds like i can hear my sexy engine roar now...
So since this was pinging related.. What could it be? What do i need to check/replace?

I just updated my post with what I learned from my rattling sound....

take a look at the timing cover pic, metal chain on aluminum timing cover will sound a lot like spark rattle (detonation). If your phasers are out of whack you may have a little detonation and the 93 could have helped with that but the remaining noise you hear could easily be a broken guide.
you might get a stethoscope or use a wooden dowel to see if the noise is coming from the timing cover....if it is, I would park the truck until you can get it in to replace the timing set.
