93 Pontiac Grand Prix engine noise?

My engine makes a light knocking noise that is coming from the top of the engine. its a steady knock that changes with engine RPM. The knock sounds like it is two knocks happening very fast. it is coming from the top rear of the engine. The oil pressure is still good. it has 65psi at full throttle and 35 at idle. its a 3.1L V6 with 158,000 miles.
how long can the engine run like that. Its not a loud noise and their is nothing in the oil

i own a repair shop and it sounds like you have a valve lifter not working right on it or a bent push rod on it,i have owned several 3.1 engines and they are one of the best ones that gm built,but i have seen a few of them with bent push rods,another possibility on it also is bad lobes on the cam shaft ,this happens a lot to gm products,they use to soft of a metal in making them, but you can pull the valve cover off and check it or have it checked,it may just need adjusting,at least you,ll know when you have the valve cover off of it,good luck with it hope this helps.

 1950 Belgian Grand Prix


1950 Belgian Grand Prix


$50.99


High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1950 Belgian Grand Prix was a Formula One race held on June 18, 1950 at Spa-Francorchamps. It was the fifth round of the 1950 World Drivers Championship. By the time of the Belgian Grand Prix, the pace of the season was beginning to tell, with only 14 cars arriving at the Spa circuit. These included the dominant Alfa Romeos of Nino Farina, Juan Manuel Fangio and Luigi Fagioli. Ferrari was down to two 125s for Luigi Villoresi and Alberto Ascari, although Ascari had a new V12 engine to try out. The factory Talbot-Lago team had three cars for Louis Rosier, Yves Giraud-Cabantous and Philippe Étancelin (standing in for the injured Eugène Martin). The rest of the field was made up of Talbot- Lagos (notably one for Raymond Sommer), a single Alta and one Maserati for Toni Branca. Farina and Fangio were fastest as usual in qualifying with Fagioli unable to match them. Sommer split the Ferraris in his old Talbot-Lago. The race would be a similar story. The Alfas went off on their own and Sommer battled with the two Ferraris.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1953 Belgian Grand Prix was a Formula Two race held on June 21, 1953 at Circuit de Spa- Francorchamps. It was part of the 1953 World Drivers’ Championship, which was run to Formula Two rules in 1952 and 1953, rather than the Formula One regulations normally used. A record crowd of over 100,000 spectators crammed into the forest track to watch this dramatic race. The Maseratis were definitely capable of matching the Ferraris for sheer speed – Juan Manuel Fangio put in a record- shattering practice lap of 117 mph. At the flag, he waved José Froilán González past and stunned everyone with another blitzkrieg lap of 110 mph from a standing start. After 11 laps, González had pulled out a full minute’s lead, but it had taken its toll on his engine which expired, leaving Fangio half a minute clear. On lap 13, it was the other Argentine’s turn to fall prey to engine troubles and Ferrari inherited another 1-2 victory from the third Argentine driver Onofre Marimón who gained his first podium position.

There were only three makes contesting this round – Maserati, Ferrari and Gordini. Despite Farina having an arm in plaster after a crash in the Mille Miglia he managed to lead away from the start. Fangio soon overtook him, but lost the lead whilst adjusting his rain visor. A frantic duel ensued, with the Argentine coming out in the lead. Farina battled furiously,but an engine blow-up cost him a chance of a race win. Fangio cruised home an easy winner from Trintignant and Moss in his privately-entered Maserati.
