My1997 gran prix makes grinding noise when put in park

Sounds like either one of the axle shafts came out of the transmission or a cv joint broke. I bet when in park you can still roll the car.

96' Grand Am Se. Loud Engine Noise

Spark plug housing? Did you remove the wires? You may have crossed them to the wrong plugs. This noise is not something to guess at and you should not continue driving it, you could damage it beyond repair. Get it to a tech asap.
