Well, didn't have a chance to pull the motor on the Ford today like I had hoped. I think you guys are probably right about the harmonic balancer though. As far as that knock though, you guys have any ideas??? It only started knocking after one of the coil wires came loose and it started missing and backfiring. It will run good for 10-15 minutes, get warmed up, and then the knock will start. Not entirely sure where it is coming from at this point. Hard to isolate the exact location because of the exhaust noise. Could it just be out of time? If so, why would that cause it to knock? It holds good oil pressure and although the oil was low, I agree that it was probably just absorbed by the new seals. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. This thing was a complete mess when I got it and needed alot of work. I was glad to see it go and really didn't want it back, but it is for family. Anyway, thanks for the help.
