Engine knock!

I was hoping you guys could help me locate this engine knock. I have done a search and learned a little.

 

The engine knocks sometimes at engine start up, but not always. The knock is very noticable under light or heavy excelleration. The oil pressure is running fairly low( there is oil in the crankcase).

 

If the bottom end is shot, what would be a ROUGH estimate for a local yocal to rebuild the bottom end. This is a nice Z but I have a earlier year that I am going to keep so I am looking for a fairly inexpensive rebuild if it comes to that.

 

Thanks in advance!

try a mechanical stethiscope or if you dont have one

use a long screwdriver put the handle to your ear and place the blade

in various places on the head and block to pinpoint it
