Strange Squeal/Squeak on Acceleration 200 1983

I have installed a set of Overload Wagon springs on my 1977 264 GL. This corrected some of the take-off vibrations due to incorrect drivetrain geometry.

Note that the drivetrain is identical to a 1983 Volvo 240 with M46.

A strange soft squeak occurs when I accelerate from a stop only. It occurs when I apply torque with the clutch. I do not understand where this sound is coming from.

Could it be from the carrier bearing? There is no noise during normal operation.

What other items could cause this noise?

Thanks,
Mr. Goat
