I picked up this 83 with a 351W at an auction. I had a hell of a steal for about two months until I start hearing this knocking. I take it to the local ford dealer and they say that it was FOUR QUARTS LOW!!!! They filled it up and it still is knocking. There was no huge puddle on the driveway or any sign at all of this problem. Even the mechanic said he did not see why it was that low. This truck had every service record back to the purchase date in the glove box when I bought it. All the records showed a new 351 in 2002. The knock is quiet in park but when you pull her into drive and accelerate it gets louder and faster as you go. Any ideas on what is wrong or some alternatives for me? Is it top end or bottom end?
