I recently pulled the transmission and replaced my oil pan gasket and once it put it back together with the clutch out the shifter area has a whining coming from it. With the clutch in the noise is gone. This is with the car just sitting still idling I haven't driven it since. Everything on the car is the same minus a pro 5.0 shifter. Is it just the shifter? The car does have a bronze shifter cup bushing. Possibly pilot or throw out bearing?

You didn't attach the shifter handle to the wrong side by any chance? (passenger side of the stick vs. driver's side). I did that once before and the shaft was binding up against the console, making it very difficult to get into Reverse. The metal to metal contact with the bronze cup could be causing some cabin noise. Same comment for the metal to metal contact on the bolted shifter shaft. A thin gasket placed there can help. Many or most T56's will have neutral gear rollover noise at idle-2500 rpm from the gears clanking together while not being seated under decent load (ie rotational whirling noises with clutch pedal out while in neutral). It shows up a lot more with aftermarket shifter/clutch combinations/upgrades and engine hp builds....and sometimes when removing/re-installing clutch/transmissions.
