Hi Guys,
I wanted to ask about a noise I heard
when driving the SS on the Weekend.
I hear a clunk/rattle from under the car
(middle to rear) when the engine is under
load (torquing) due to letting the
clutch out. The noise is fairly obvious
when driving around 15-20 mph and
letting the clutch out in 3rd gear.
It sound like something is loose like maybe
the trans mount, or the tourque arm that
runs along side of the driveshaft.
Just wanted to ask in case someone else
has been down this road.
Thanks guys.
Dave

have you checked underneath for clearance issues? may be simple as the exhaust hitting.

try to get it up on a hoist to check underneath.
