totally normal due to the dual disc clutch and high performance tranny etc...it is even listed in the owners manual to realize that this noise will exist etc...it does not annoy me, but I do hear it when sitting as you described...

I FOUND THIS!!
this one applies, noise is a bit worse with the AC on

19923 2005-2008 - MUSTANG MANUAL TRANSMISSION GEAR ROLLOVER NOISE
ALL 2005-2008 MUSTANGS WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION MAY EXHIBIT A LIGHT GEAR ROLLOVER NOISE WHILE THE CLUTCH IS ENGAGED AND THE TRANSMISSION IS IN NEUTRAL. GEAR ROLLOVER NOISE IS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. IF THE NOISE IS BELIEVED TO BE ABNORMALLY LOUD, PLEASE COMPARE TO A LIKE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY REPAIR. REFER TO WORKSHOP MANUAL SECTION 308 FOR ADDITIONAL MANUAL TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION.

you do realize that we have a different transmission etc in our gt500's than just a regular mustang gt etc..right? (Seriously not trying to be a smart *** at all)
we have a TR-6060 6 SPEED TRAN WITH DUAL DISC CERA-METALIC CLUTCH
FROM PAGE 8 OF SHELBY OWNERS MANUAL
Due to the high performance of the powertrain, a certain amount of noise from the transmission is normal. The noise will be most noticeable when the vehicle is idling in neutral with the clutch pedal out but can also occur when driving away from a stop.
I'm sure you read this and if you do not feel comfortable with the noise still then by all means bring i to the dealer and advise them....good luck...

I personaly hate the tranny in the shelby I think I may have found the solution to the problem. Atleast for mine. Mine has problems with reverse and when it is pushed hard.Example powershifting, or just try to go to reverse.

I took mine in for the AC noise. It was almost a rattle. I was told there is a TSB on the AC clutch pulley thing. Mine was even leaking a little apparently. My Compressor was replaced under warranty.

They also replaced the clutch packs in the rear end. You think the AC noise is bad...the rear end noise was horrible...

The noise referred to in the manualis the clutch "hiss" noise I beleive. Maybe not.

The noise sounds like pieces of the transmission are falling off inside.It's gear and input shaft racket or rollover if you will.Wasted trip to the dealer for sure.

no actually the hiss noise is in addition to the transmission noise as the hiss is heard when clutch is partially depressed and let out whereas this noise is more apparent when clutch is out all the way and car is in neutral..the AC noise is a separate issue that I have heard from the dealer they have had to replace the same partrs as you stated above..
