Need Help w\ popping noise

I recently installed a BMR Kmember, and lower control arms.I also installed LS1 brake swap w\ new rotors and pads. Now whenever I slam on the brake in forward or reverse I get a popping noise like something was under a bind. I have tried all manner of fixes to no avail. the noise seems to be coming from under the shifter area in the center of the car.

Here`s what I`ve done:

checked every bolt in the front end and brakes all are at spec.

Was afraid my ls1 tranny mount might be broken, repaced w\ a poly, still have the noise. Although it was difficult to line up the trans crossmember w\ the mount had to pry the tranny to the driver side by a 1/4 of an inch to line up and get the bolt in.

checked the torque arm to verify that nothing was loose, everything tight , no cracks ect..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 96 LT1 TA a4
