Noise near front of engine when clutch is engaged.

Really need help here. Just got an 87 Supra T last week. It has an RPS stage 3 clutch on it. When the clutch is engaged, I get a chirping sound - similar to a loose-belt sound. Previous owner thinks it's normal. Two ASE certified techs who work on imports think it's a bad crankshaft or something related. Of course, those techs don't deal with performance parts. Are they right? Any thoughts or advice?? Please help.
