when mine was doin this it turned out to be my exhaust bracket had snapped. sounds stupid i know as i thought it was something to do with my clutch.

try.... find your bite with the clutch, but no acceleration, but dont let the engine stall and see if you can hear it better then. if so i'd check your exhaust brackets.

release bearing or bearings in the gearbox, but worth checking the exhaust bracket just incase but my moneys on gearbox release bearing
