Default Loud clunk near trans..please help.

I just got a ls7 clutch kit installed in my 1998 Camaro SS. I havent beat on it at all, today when i got 85 miles on it, i got on it alittle, and about 5 miles down the road, i heard a loud clunk when i let the clutch out, and its b een doing that ever since. It has a brand new Prothane trans mount, im not sure if anyone else has had any problems with it, but im thinking that it may have been the trans mount. Any input is apreciated. Thanks, Mike

I bet that repair bill was a bit on the large side!
