Most likely the knock you hear is not a main bearing, but a rod bearing. When the bearings wear, they tend to get egg shaped and once the oil warms and thins out, the knock becomes more apparent. It is possible (if the crank journals are not worn beyond tolerances and there are no cracks) that a new set of bearings alone can temporarily quiet the knock down. This is something a backyard mechanic could do if he (or she) is experienced. However, leave the tolerance checking to a professional. There are a number of things he will want to check and all are important.

How do you determine the pressure of the nitrogen and oxygen?

You need some sort of an instrument. Most of us just use a pressure gauge, although you could do it empirically--you could throw the end of the hose in water, and if bubbles came out you would know the gas pressure is at least as high as the water pressure--which is 15psi since the 15psi atmosphere is pressing down on the water.
