My SR ran on a slight rod knock for almost 2 years. Engine was strong and everything. I said the hell with it, drive it till it dies then rebuild time. Weird thing is that the rod knock never got worse, well until it finally gave up. You could only hear it knocking if you held it at a certain RPM, you couldn't tell at idle or under full throttle. Just was curious about it and thought I'd see if anyone else had heard of this type of thing.
