1st off 3 posts I would have to say welcome to the forums..... 2nd this happen to me about 6 mths ago. Loud ticking sounds. Thought (hoping) it was the lifters.. found out it was the engine. GL but I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole!

Unless you could get it dirt cheap possibly.

Be patient when shopping for a new car. Wait till you find the one you want at the price you want to pay for it.

They say it's a daily driver, so it might be a collapsed lifter or a timing chain knock, or just the phantom 4.6L tick that plagues them.
My 96 GT had one heck of a knock that I never could trace down. Been running like this since 2009 and it's still running great today.
