Oil pressure is spot on, have not pulled the valve cover yet. Car has a little over 200K on it. Dont know about oil usage.

Yes, I have a stethescope. From what I understand, it damaged the oil pump and they replaced that etc. Runs great, just has the knock.


I have to ask, what's the oil pressure like? Any unusual wear on the cam lobes? It shouldn't take too much effort to look at the top end. Does it
smoke or use oil?

If the cam doesn't show a lot of gnarly wear, and the chain stretch is somewhat reasonable, I'd slap a set of bearings in it.
