My Clutch was replaced about 3000 miles ago along with the ram master and slave cylinder. now when the car is sitting at idle there is a sqealing /squeaking sound. It goes away when I push the clutch pedal in. I think it may be that slave but has anyone ever experienced anything like this?

I'd look at either the throwout bearing or the pilot bearing...either way, you'll be pulling the transmission to find out :(

Pilot bearing would be more likely if it goes away when the clutch pedal is down since when the pedal is down the trans input shaft stops turning in the pilot bearing, therefore stoping the squeak.
Gonna have to pull the clutch to get to it. Let me guess you didnt replace the pilot when swapping the clutch out?

No I replaced the pilot bearing as well the one I took out was like a bronze bushing type bearing and the one I put back in was a needle bearing.

Well it is very possible it went out again. There are only 3 things that can squeal in the bellhousing: pilot, throwout, and trans input shaft. All 3 require removal of the trans. My bet would be on the pilot.
