Default new clutch

so just finished installing the clutch. anyways when i press the pedal all the way i hear this little chatter noise like something scraping. but it changes gear fine everything is fine.

Im thinking its the release bearing even though it was brand new. Well i hope its not that.

im just going to break it in and see if i still hear the noise after 400-500 km.

that sounds like a good idea. mind you, the a defective release bearing makes a whizzing noise. however, i wouldnt rule out the possibility. perhaps a misalignment of the PP assembly? most importantly, did you get the flywheel machined as well? it will be interesting to find out what the problem really is

i ran into that problem before.. it was the pressure plate. either not aligned or not torque properly

^^ negative

the release bearing is actuated when the clutch is "released"/depressed/pedal is down. the fact is that the throw out bearing is the point where the stationary portion of the clutch system meets rapid high speed roation on the system.

i second the above post of an improperly torqued PP
