[KiltedBanshees93GT]

Thanks for the info guys,
I dont know which way I'm going to have to jump on this, since there is no noise at idle to allow me to test. (And the critera for the bearing noise don't apply in a lot of ways. Starting seems ok, a little more valvetrain noise than usual until the psi comes up [also running 20-50 oil because of oil burning], above 35 is ok, depending on the gear and speed. 45 in 4th is fine, but in 5th gets knocking when I go uphill. (@ about 1500-1700 rpm). if I hit the hill at like 1800-2k in 5th, it doesnt do it as much, but I still have to let off the gas to avoid knock as I go up. (As it starts I back off the throttle or downshift)
She hasnt had the most pampered life, but aside from a very light bit of tapping, especially on startup in the cold, the idle sounds fine. I guess my best option is to get the tune up done and then see. (Dont know if its going to happen this weekend due to sub-20 temps.) God I need a garage .
I really hope its not the bearings, I already have one stang in need of a rebuild.
Thanks for the input, and keep it coming,
J
