Default help grinding noise when clutch pressed

today when i started up my car it sounded like a squeeling pully. i realized it only made this noise when i had the clutch pressed in. does anything think know what the problem is? i was thinking i need to buy a new throw out bearing. how long do the stock bearings usually last? my car has 66k miles on it and the guy i bought it from put a new clutch in it at 60k so im not sure if he put a high performance clutch in and didnt replace the throw out bearing. does any one know if this is a good bearing to buy? http://www.jegs.com/i/Zoom+Clutches/...1777/10002/-1# or bite the bucket and spend $350 on a RAM throw out bearing? my car is a 98 ss

Yeah I would say its the TOB. I have about 15k miles on a new slave unit and its been fine. My stock one was fine at 70k miles, but since I had the transmission out I replaced it anyways.
