The Squeal results from the contact of a fully metallic disc scuffing the steel friction surface of the plate and flywheel during clutch engagement. This is normal and should be expected throughout the life of the clutch. Colder weather can make this more audible though...but agin this is expected. As a side note, the more you slip the clutch the more noise you will here because the sound occurs at the engagement point of the clutch, when the disc is beginning to bite. Get out of the pedal quicker and the noise will be reduced. I am glad that everything worked out for you at the track. Now, go get some pics and video so the rest of us can see the car in action!
I have a video, I'll have it up in a day or so
Thanks again everybody for the help!

Sintered Iron is very grippy even when cold...thus a ritualized heat up process isn't really needed. I can't wait to see the vids. Let me know if you all need anything else. Thanks,
