    7mgte knocking

    Check that both of the cam pulleys are 100% tight. I have heard of that making a lot of noise and not being completely obvious they were loose with the belt tension on them.

    Project: Git'R driving...a VERY short build

    Ya I dig it, had to stare at it for a minute with so much going on. Definitely an interesting interior. So you plan on selling the old center console lid?
