slight clunk/clunk under console and floorboard

Sometime when i come to a stop or when i accelerate while turning or blip the throttle or hit teh throttle and let off quickly i get this slight clunk and i dont not knwo what it is , sometime the clunk is harder than other times

tranny mount is poly and new
torque arm has poly mount,
all bolts are teight and secure
it could be u joints but i feels like its comign from right under the floorboard , ive checked it and will check everythign again but i am not sure what this could be

im gonna check the exhaust to c if its hitting since my motor mounts are prolly sagging but if anyone has any info help me out (headers are not in )

TTT...............

well i chceked all the bolts , nothing was loose

is there supposed to be any kind of play in teh drivetrain when in park
IE i try to rotate the driveshaft by hand, should it move a little or non at all?
i can get it to rock back and forth say 1/4 inch maybe less and u can hear it inside teh tailshaft

Sounds like U joints to me.
Start the car and shift from drive to reverse with your foot on the brake and listen for this clunk.
I am assuming your tranny mount is not broken.

Just a thought, but it could be your Y- pipe hitting something under the car when it revs. mine was doing the same thing after my longtube install. I had to rotate the drivers side pipe a little to get the extra clearance I needed.
