Is it exhaust backfire? Maybe an exhaust valve? Maybe an exhaust system leak. You can check your timing chain, see if timing marks still line up? Sometimes oil/gas get into the exhaust can ignite. A long time ago, my old pickup backfired, sounded like a shotgun blast. People two blocks away were looking in my direction, I looked under the vehicle, my muffler was split from one end to the other. lol, good luck
