[T3] Update on my early Notch in the Shop!!! Early notch issues?

I'd say it's either the clutch cable lacking sag or Keith's suggestion that
the front transmission mount is bad, or maybe just the nuts on the mount are
loose.

You want to get to the bottom of it before the extra stress on other
components causes a problem.

Yeah....sometimes if I accidently give it too much gas taking off in first
there will be a very violent boom boom boom boom, which I don't know if the
clutch conduit sag would cause....would it? Or is this a totally different
symptom of something else? Or is this supposed to happen when you accidently
give it too gas while taking off in first. I am prone to do that as
sometimes my foot slips for a second.
