I have had this really weird clang ever since I installed my ACT Extreme kit. Been driving on it since November of last year and never really payed attention to it, got curious today.
Usually happens when shifting from 1st to 2nd as soon as I release the clutch.

Doesnt always happen either. The clutch holds perfectly, car drives perfectly, no issues. Just this metal clang every once in a while, not loud either. Like someone dropping a spoon on the floor from a a height of 3 feet.

Bolts were torqued properly, and lock-tight was used as well.

Anyone else have similar experiences?
