No mate, he has had the crank ground, and the same company provided the shells. Thats why it seems weird that the pressure is so low.

Just had a thought though, AFAIK the company who did the crank didnt have the conrods, so how could they have enough information to get the shells right? Getting confused with it now, and I'm pissed off cos I've left my phone and camera down there

Will have a listen to the bottom end. Its not knocking at the moment, but its looking the most likely cause
