Im possibly buying a Nova with an E16SE engine fitted.

The owner says the oil light came on, and its started tapping/knocking. He has been told its the oil pump. Im nowhere near the car so cant tell for myself.

If the oil pump was to fail on this engine, what would the damage more than likely be? Shells?

Also, if the E16SE is mullered, how hard would it be to swap it in favour a C16SE, as i can lay my hands on one of those rather easily.

Cheers all.
