normal signs of a bad TOB are a grinding noise when the car is in neutral right?

oh snap!
if your TOB is bad make sure you get the six cyl and not the 4cyl TOB. There was a problem where they weren't packaged right. I posted some pics in an old TOB post a few months ago.

Exactly why I'm going back to a stock SVT clutch next year when I pull the tranny for a HMS tranny.
The clutch has gotten so loud and drives me insane. Everyone thinks I have engine problems when they hear it.

I meant the TOB. As far as the Spec clutch is concerned, I got the internals coated which makes my Stage 1 very quiet. Sometimes it makes some rollover noise(not loud) and sometimes it makes zero noise. I recommend this process to anyone doing a transmission through HMS.

Terry says, with your foot OFF the clutch the TOB is just 'kissing' the release fingers of the clutch pressure plate so a worn bearing should be quiet. When you depress the clutch pedal THEN the full load from the clutch springs is on the release bearing. That is the time a bady worn bearing will be VERY noisy.

Yeah, sorry. I didn't read enough. I saw noise, and SPEC and put the two together without paying attention to what you were referring to.
I'll have to keep in mind what you said about the internal coating.

ok so that rules out the TOB, but does terry have any idea what could be making that noise with the clutch out and the car in neutral?
thanks for the relay of info todd
