Milano THUMP on take off...

Center bushing
outta line? You know, the 'disc' with the little pilot. That's what's up with mine, but it thumps more than once. And, the Old Dude used to run the hell out of that car...

Okay.......now that I've actually driven the car!
Does this help narrow down the possibilities?
Thump happens on initial take off, then when shifting gears it'll thump once when the clutch is pressed in.....change gear......let clutch back up and it'll thump one to three times. I can see the gear lever move either left or right at each thump!
Car runs great otherwise! Milano Verdes are pretty sweet....kicks my poor Spiders butt in the torque/speed department!!
I guess that's what 2 extra cylinders will do for ya.............
So? Does that describe anything exactly?? Or is it just one of the above possible sources??
Thanks--

I felt something similar when my 89' Milano had spit a chunk of the front guibo(donut) out. I would get 1 clunk upon initially starting it, then another shutting it down. I hope that’s not the case! Ended up replacing exhaust cat-back since it had to be dropped for access, as well as shifter bushings which made a BIG difference.

DeDion bushing
When my front DeDion bushing was shot to hell it behaved very like you describe.
My 2cent worth (that's Euro cent, not that foreign muck )
(ducks and runs for cover)

It seems you have jinxed me.
On my way back from work today my GTV6 started doing the exact same thing.
