    62 deville park ave..just got it recently.. drained all fluids and changed, new fuel lines, filters, plugs etc... got it running really easily for sitting for about 4-5 years...

    here's my issue.. ive got a fairly loud knock, and cant decide if it's the valves or something on the bottom end.. i made a video of it for you guys to check it out and give me your opinion...

    id like to think it's the valves/springs since they are non-adjustable..i yanked off the drivers side valve cover as this seems to be where the sounds located. didnt find anything unusual, nothing seemed to be broken or loose...tried pouring a little motor honey into the oil, n that didnt seem to do anything..

    let me know what you guys think, id obviously like to remedy the situation as cheap as possible without "band-aiding" it, since ive got a tight budget for now trying to build the car..

    any help/comments/suggestions is greatly appreciated...
