New 924S Owner, with a few questions.

For starters My name is Mark, and I have inherited the car from a friend killed in a motorcycle accident. It's a silver 87 924S with 67k miles. I plan to slowly restore the car and use it for autocross aswell. But I know very little about the little things on these engines (not new to engines in general however) and the Haynes manual is quite vague.

One, the oil gauge reads at 4.5-5 when cruising from 2500+ RPMs is this normal?

The struts are the original factory ones and the fronts are leaking, can I just replace the shock or will I have to purschase a whole strut assembly?

The engine has a slight tapping noise, I'd like to believe it's injector noise as that's where I find the noise located with a stethoscope. Does the engine in the 924S have Hydrualic lifters and no shims? If it's a valve how hard would it be to replace the lifters and such?

I appreciate any advice, and I'm sorry if these questions were answered already.

Thanks, Mark S.
