If it was a chevy motor, I would say to do nothing. I wouldn't have spent $650 on a ford with bad bearings though. I drove my '85 Camaro for 6 months with a od knock. Beat the ever loving crap out of it, and when I sold the car the crank, rod, and block were still intact and functioning normally. there just wasn't a bearing on the #4 connecting rod, so it made a bit of noise.
