Bad Clutch NOises

[lizardqing]

Need some help, just finished up with replaceing the clutch in my 91. After putting it all back together and finally at 3 am cranking it up, let out the clutch pedal and it sounded like someting was beating the **** out of someting else in the area of the clutch. It would also not go into gear with the car running anf the pedal pushed in. Now that we are looking forward to tearing it all down again, anyone have any ideas on what we need to look for? We already know it is most likely something stupid on our part and not really anxious about starting all over. Thanks for any help you can give.

WOW, all I can say is don't start it again and mess with the gears because your bound to mess up some of those new clutch parts you just put in. You probaly installed it wrong or something. You should just rip it back apart and hand it to somebody that has experience with clutch jobs on the SHO.

all it took was that one time makeing the noise and it was off. Best we can figure is that either the clutch plate is in backwards, the pressure plate bolts are tightened to much, or something with the t/o bearing.
