Im having an issue when im taking off slowly. Its not the clutch or TOB or flywheel or pressure plate. Noise was present before I installed a stage 2 exedy flywheel and stage 2 clutch. When Im at a stand still (and this noise comes and goes) and I push the clutch in and start giving gas I can hear a squeaking sound kind of like a squeak/scraping noise. Wish I could record it but its RIGHT by the pedals. Sometimes it will do it at idle sometimes it wont. Sometimes it happens on cold start and other times it wont. I run 93 octane on a 91 tune i have ford performance hotrod cams, jlt series 3 cai O/R x pipe ford performance intake manifold. This all started after I installed a strut tower brace and I have already cut the hood for clearance it went away foir a few days and returned today. BUt this time it came and went and I couldnt do it again. I have no idea what the noise is coming from...I also want to add its not the pedals either. I took the entire pedal assembly out when i replaced the clutch master cylinder when i did the clutch and use white lithium on everything and tis still there. I also have a steel braided clutch line. This noise is driving me nuts. It doesnt sound like its coming from the engine or trans. Most of the time it does it when I start moving from a stand still. Its driving me absolutely freakin nuts

The volume knob on the stereo cures most audio annoyances when turned clockwise far enough.:head3:

Otherwise, I'm with the throwout bearing.

I just put in a brand new stage 2 seedy clutch exedy lightweight flywheel, Ford performance roller pilot bearing and throw out bearing. Noise was there before I put all that in and it was still here. So far I haven't heard it. I think it was just the strut bar rubbing against the hood. I dont know. Haven't heard it since.
