Finished T56 swap, now a problem...

[TheMustangLoveR]

Hi all, I just did the Tr3650 to T56 swap in my 2003 GT, and now I have a problem that I can't diagnose due to lack of knowledge. It goes into each gear just fine and is driveable, BUT:

Only when I let out the clutch ALL the way, a rapid metallic tapping sound takes place, and it varies with the engine rpms. If I place my foot a bit on the clutch pedal, it stops.

What could this be? I already had a Terminator clutch on the car before the swap and so I didn't touch it, but I did replace the throwout bearing.

Any ideas? Clutch adjustment problem?

is it tapping,or more a squeal?
try tightening up the cable alittle.
you can do this if you have an adjustable cable or/and a firewall adjuster.

hope this helps alittle,not familiar with that tranny.
i run the t5 in my 5.0

also,did you lube the bearing retainer and clutch fork pivot ball?

Sounds like throw out bearing.

throw out bearing retainer if the clutch pedal is flapping around.
