i would check all your connections, im not sure of what tourque value they need, but make sure they are tight. I would look for signs of rubbing underneath the car and seeif maybe something is stuck under it!
good luck! [Big Grin]

have a buddy sit in the car and hold it at 2000 or wherever the rattling starts and then get under there and look if you can see what's making the noise [patriot]

Do you have aftermarket headers on there? We had a rattle noise that i thought was the clutch and then on closer inspection it sounded like it was coming from the left front cat. Now since we have the car up on jackstands it turns out to be the EGR pipe that conects into the header it was banging around under there.
