Clutch Noise after PPF Correctly Aligned

Hey. Can't find anything on this when searching so wanted to post a thread. I recently re-aligned my PPF to right on the spec after driving with it way to low for almost 7000km. (I know rookie mistake) but I sure know how to align it now and all was good and my strange rattles disappeared. (was the tranny bumping the cross member). After a few 100 km the clutch began making a clank sort of noise when the clutch is pressed in. It's fairly loud and can feel it in my foot as well. Doesn't do it when the clutch is released and hasn't had any effect on the cars performance. I presume this has something to do with the ppf alignment changing? Do you think I bent or destroyed my new throw bearing or a shaft / lever of some sort? Would a blown slave cylinder make such a noise (ting / tang type of sound lol)? Any thoughts / ideas would be appreciated. Hopefully don't have to pull my transmission again as I just did my clutch this summer. Thanks for the help crew.

Make sure your clutch pedal is adjusted properly

Thanks. It may indeed be the clutch pedal on the inside, will have to make sure it's correctly adjusted. As I can feel in my foot and hear a spring type sound. Just also seems to make a noise outside the cockpit as well but maybe I'm just over thinking it. Thanks Man.
