Default help, I think I over reved my engine...

I have a 1985 camaro, v6, 2.8. Today I was driving around and I decided to see what it could really do on a highway on-ramp and slammed the gass... when I was driving back home, I kept hearing a sound (like a rattleing of something loose) when I was at low RPM. Its not the push rods I know that, any ideas on where I can start to look for the problem?

Ya, if you threw a rod, you probably wouldn't have made it home. Was there any vibrations?.

Ive been noticeing the clutch has been vibrating when I do slow starts, think I need a new clutch.... But I think that the noise I was hearing was the exhaust rattling, which is good news because thats an easy fix.
