Knocking is never a good thing. Best bet would be to spend the $ and get it checked out.

The 45 MAGs seem to be notorious for excessive valve gaps. I would start there. The valve lash should be set between. 004-.006 for that motor.

Its pretty hard to test drive something when its in Wisconsin and your in Utah lol but i will deffinatly have it checked its just not really like a distinct knocking noise i have heard motors knock but if you all must know i only paid 3500 for it so no matter what i think its still a good deal

After Market Roller Rockers will make a little noise in these engines, its normal though, that could be what you are hearing

:-? Me??? Nah, not me. Robn is a good dude, I was just giving him a hard time. :lol:

When you said it was knocking I assumed you meant really knocking, not the clatter from the roller rockers. Glad it checked out ok.
