    Why'd you replace everything? Did you replace with stock stuff? What's it do in neutral?

    Sounds strange. You may have to take the tranny out to figure it out. Just make sure its not engine related before you yank it out.

    mmm did you just get the car? Did it drive fine in 1st before the clutch job? When was the tranny swapped?

    You did put in new throw out bearing and pilot bearing right?
