    Bad throwout bearing?

    Ok, when driving my mustang after we just replaced the clutch, flywheel, pilot bearing, and throwout bearing, when at high rpms, in N, it will make like a metal spinning on metal noise, kind of a whine, is this a bad throwout bearing or what?

    because if its the throwout bearing im gonna be pissed after i spend $600+ for this clutch kit, then the bearing is bad, and i have to rip it all out again...

    Thanks for the help SCS!!

    hmm...im not sure then. I had a whining noise before that went away when the clutch was pressed in. it turned out to be the pilot bearing. maybe someone else can chime in for help...i would check to be certain that its comming from the tranny area and not under the hood
