ok so i have found a 318is and it has a valve knocking so i was wondering if i should buy it for 900 and what it will take to fix it? the engine was blown but it is running now the timeing was reset and it running correctly i believe i have to redo the heads and put them back together but my two questions are
should i buy it and how much will it take to fix?

If it is in decent shape and you have the money to put into it then buy it rip out that under powered junk 4cyl and put a 6 in it I've got a 2.8 sitting with harness and 413 dme you will need a stronger trans drive shaft diff sooner than later but I will part with motor harness dme for $1000 and throw in a 391 open diff
