Wutentbrannt schrien sie sich an
Explanation:
da gehen zwar die "Eingeweide verloren", aber es hat mehr von dem Explosiven, das zum Schreien passt. "Wut im Bauch" ist ein schönes Bild, passt aber IMO nicht besonders gut zum Schreien.

grosser Wut


Explanation:
grosser Ärger
It means that the person is very angry down to his 'guts'.
visceral refers to the 'gut'. see link:

Neuro-notes. A gestural fossil, the lowered-brows cue is innervated by special visceral nerves, originally designed for feeding. The expression is emotionally responsive today as it reflects visceral sensations (i.e., "gut feelings") aroused, e.g., by aggression or anger


Visceral factors include:
Negative Emotions – e.g.,
anger
fear
jealousy
Drives – e.g.,
hunger
sex
curiosity
