Yes, I down shift into first. No, I haven't changed the clutch fluid lately. I am going to pull the tranny out on Tuesday and take a look. I will let you guys know what I find. My mechanic buddy drove it today and he thinks that the clutch is not disengaging all the way with the pedal on the floor. We will find the culprit. Thanks guys for the help.

If that is the problem, and I have no idea if it could or couldn't be, I'll buy you a drink if we ever meet.

Found the problem. Besides the clutch being at the brink of death, this was the cause of the clunking:

The clutch is now in. I put a competition clutch in with the competition flywheel. It is very similar to the stock clutch. The pedal pressure that is.
