Weird noise when engaging clutch?

Ok. So I can't really remember how long this has been going on. But lately it's been happening more consistently.

When engaging my clutch, from a stop or slow roll, there's this "tang" noise. I don't feel any jolt or shake when it happens, everything is still smooth.

I do have a Racing Beat aluminum flywheel and an Exedy stage one sport clutch. Part of me is thinking maybe it's just the way they act. The other part of me says I didn't tighten everything all the way.

I also noticed one of the joints, on the transmission side, of the drive shaft didn't move freely. Maybe it became loose and now goes clang?
