alright, ive got a fairly new centerforce dual friction clutch, new adjustable clutch cable and quadrant, new throw out bearing and new pilot bearing and when the clutch is all the way out there is a squeaking noise. everyone ive talked to just said that it is a normal mustang noise and that you cant get rid of it. but i think it makes my car sound like a piece of crap. help!

Did you grease the throw out bearing? You are to apply a coat of grease to the side that touches the pressure plate fingers. If you apply a little clutch pedal does the noise go away? If so the you need to adjust the cable so it takes all the slack from the clutch fork. The applies a little pressure on the throwout without applying any force to the pressure plate.
