The clutch is fully engaged when your foot is off the pedal--is that when you hear the noise? I'm thinking you mean when the clutch pedal is fully engaged (pushed in), that's when you hear the clicking noise. That's when the most pressure is on the throwout bearing. I'd start by looking at that first. After that, you'll want to check the pilot bearing and then the clutch and pressure plate.

It is a LT1 right? It is something with the fork or the pressure plate. Pull the boot on the fork in the bellhousing. See if you can see something amiss up inside there w/ a light.
