ok i have a rebuilt t56 from a sponser on here and it shifts perfect highly recomend them .i installed a centerforce dual friction clutch new pilot bearing,slave,and ram adjustable master cylinder .. so everything should be new well it makes a very odd noise.when you pull out in first and go to changed to 2 its almost a like a gear grinding nose a metal to metal sound but the tranny shifts perfect not hard to shift or to lose just right so im leaning toward the clutch.another reason i think its the clutch is if im goin down the highway say 65mph and put it in neutral and rev it up you can here the sound real good the higer you rev the louder it gets sounds like a high pitch metal sound like somthing eating away or rubbing ..i have no clue what it is no one around me does either so please help im starting to hate my car lol

Well I am far from an expert but if you had it rebuilt, do you know if they put plastic pads on the shifting forks or the metal ones, cause the metal ones make more noise while driving than the plastic ones, but not sure as to why it would do it in nuetral

from what i remember it had carbon fiber syncros,billet slider keys ,still shift forks...but i mean this aint no slight nose its pretty resonably loud i know i would get some noise form all aftermarket stuff but i mean it got a good lil noise to it

The aftermarket clutch and the adjustable( which means it can be mis-adjusted) leads me to say your noise is clutch release related. I think the noise is the disc dragging.

+1. That would be my vote. Doesn't sound like a shift pad issue. They would make noise, but not anything as severe as what it sounds like ls1chris is describing.

I agree with calhoon. Pretty sure we rebuilt the trans and not a big fan of the centerforce clutches. The shift pads would be a slight sound like a brake pad rubbing but should not get louder with revs. Do you have an adjustable master on the car?
