"Coming in from an afternoon of cruising, I opened up the throttle to WOT and ran for a 1/2 mile. Clanking noise came from engine area soon after opening up. Speed started falling off as noise grew louder, throttled back to half throttled but noise continued. Engine popped and died, had to be towed in. Checked engine next morning, turned over Ok, oil was OK. Reset breaker and started engine using muffs,it has a random "clanking" sound coming from rear of engine. Shifter will go into forward, but grinds severely in reverse. Oil pressure and temperature are good. Any suggestions or ideas about what this might be??"
