Bit of back story, I had an accident about 6 weeks ago leaving me unable to open the hood. Now last few days I noticed the oil pressure sitting lower than normal. A good bit lower.
Today at highway speeds it started ticking, so I immediately got.off the next exit. It died on me at the bottom of the ramp. Cranked right back up but idled low, I drove less than a quarter mile into a parking lot and turned it off. With a big ass pry bar I managed to get the hood open, checked the oil and nothing on the stick.

Dumbass

So put close to 3.5 quarts in one being Lucas oil stabilizer. Cranked right up. Idle is a bit low. Proceeded to head the 3 last mile home. Power is fine. No over heating, ever. Before or after knock. Knock is loud at about 2500 rpm, accelerating or decelerating. Didn't knock going up hill. not at idle and not past 3000rpm.
Cut off twice. Once when I stopped for a light, one when I was doing 40mph. Just cut off. It Cranked right back up each time.
What have I gotten myself into?
