Default loud vibrating noise coming from t56!! vid inside!

I put in a monster stage 1 twin disk clutch. After a while i had this loud vibrating noise come on during highway driving. After this noise and having some trouble getting into gears, I thought it was time to rebuild the trans after I did the ls3 swap.

Well I got it all done and yet still have the same noise! RPM inc in CA did the rebuild.

Heres a vid.




Looking for opinions. Let me know. Thanks!

At Highway speeds it's that loud. 4, 5, 6th gears. 1-3 there, but not nearly as loud.

is the shifter loose or does it vibrate more than normal?

Ive heard cases where the shifter isnt tight and causes some weird noises and that might make it hard to shift into certain gears.

Does kinda vibrate. I can feel it through the stick. It just doesn't seem to be the shifter though.

maybe someone else can chime in. From the vid, something sounded loose, but yeah, i dont think it should be that loud.

Sounds like something is loose. Does it do it if you push the clutch in while driving and rev the engine?

wow it would probably be cheaper for me to buy an already built tranny and have it installed. who did your install?

sorry for all the questions, but ive had nothing but bad luck with mechanics in the valley so far and i have 2 toys that need trannys now lol

It does not. That leads me to believe that it is the tranny.

What do you think?

Bearings?
