Did you grease up the bearing retainer that the throwout bearing moves on?

Probably the throwout bearing, i've hear of them failing right after installation.

Was the car on or off when you did this?

My guess is the cable. Follow it and see if you can't have someone depress the clutch (off obviously) and see if you can find it.
