Inspect your lower unit bearings for play. Thrust and lateral.

Previous owner had just put a brand new stock muffler and I changed it out with a q no diff made and the lu I have engine off right now so no belt tension on bearing can't feel any slack but does gt use bushings or bearing s

Not 100% sure how the clutch setup in on a GT. Maybe your clutch is rattling against the anti rotation bolt (worn down) if thats how GT setup works.
