It's not valve related. When it was run low on oil for hours it probably wore the cylinder and it now has a little bit of piston slap, causing the knock. That's what the knock sounds like to me anyways.

This would also be why it's burning oil, because the cylinder is worn.

@RockeyDA Well it's needs to be tuned at full throttle. Problem is when the engine is under load the governor lets in more air which will lean it a tad. The best method I've found is to turn your carb to factory specs, tweak it by feel (I struggle with this), and then check your spark plug after a hard run to see if you're running rich or lean.

Well if it's rich the plug will be wet and sooty. If it's lean the plug will be white and ashy looking. Ideal is somewhere in the middle lol.

Here's a link with a nice chart:

I think a tan colour indicates a nice clean burn. Black is rich, clean lean.

Sending stuff means that U just run it til it blows up

so what? are you telling me to not put oil in it and destroy a motor that should be a cheepely saved motor? i mean theres no rod play and the wall looks pretty good, and i was able to save headgasket. if i could just find a new set of rings i would basicly have a new motor.

Yeah, but you can damage the cylinder walls beyond repair this way. I think that you might have piston slap, and the longer you run it like that, the worse it gets and it's very expensive to repair.
