i just went today to look at a 92 camaro rs, its not a bad car overall and the owner started it up and it ran just fine, we took it for a spin and got back and thats when i noticed the "knocking" in the engine, i was told by my friend that it could b the fuel pump, but the owner got it checked out and it turns out it might need new bearings(upper or lower) or a new lifter?, i didnt know exactly what he meant, any help would b great, also i'd like to know what to expect to pay in order to get it fixed, the car has the 306tbi in it, thanks for the help!

 

Pass......

 

the words " bad bearing" wants to make me run the oppisate way.lol.

 

With an engine that age with a knock you would want to do a complete rebuild or a crate motor. I don't know what deal you made but you can fine 92 RS 's that has a lot of life left in them for less then that rebuild would cost. Leave that car for someone that can do their own work.
