Default 1990 Chevy 1500 questions

All right guys. I've been looking for a truck and found a 1990 Chevy K1500 with a 350. It's an auto with 133,000miles, everything looks great... but the catch is its got an engine tick. The seller says it sounds like its hitting on 7 cylinders but not the 8th? I don't know how you'd hear that but he says it stills runs strong and has power. Do you guys think its worth $2200? I've searched the forum and seen that you guys say its sticky rock arms etc? Guessing it'd require a rebuild kit so any good brands I should go for if its worth to purchase?

Thanks in advance

If it was me .. i would steer clear of it. 90 with 133k sounds great.
Why does,nt he fix it. Could be something simple.
Tell him you want to have a mech. look at it. See what he says.

Get it, A 350 is not an expensive motor to repair or replace.
