Light rodnock?

there is nothing cheap and good. Do it yourself (measure every clearance buy every important tool and read the book) and put it back OEM, OR get another used OEM longblock, OR spend reasonable amounts of cash (not cheap) on an upgraded bottom end.

Nothing will help, sounds like failed oil pump or not letting the car warm up fully and revving it high. Gotta let the car warm up in the winter months if you're running thick "turbo weight" oil.
