83? That steering wheel belongs in a earlier model, also the headlights should be the 280E style ones but I could be wrong and very early 83's still came out had the round ones (poor lighting). Also I doubt wether the bottom end is the cause of the noise unless severly overheted or run with low/no oil. Timing chain and valves are a problem in those motors but the bottom end is pretty well build.

with an 84 auto which I am planning on manualising
