Default Clutch Noise?

I installed a stage one clutch into my '93 del sol about 10k miles ago and now when you first start it and run it until the temp goes up when you push the clutch pedal in to shift it makes a squiling noise and also makes this noise after you let it out until you hit a certain rpm but once the car is warmed up it does it less and most times not at all. It doesnt seem to effect at all how the car runs or drives in any way im just wondering because I have 2k miles left on my warranty should I get a new one or am I worrying about nothing? I just dont want it to go out of warranty and have problems then have to pay for another one when this one is basically brand new.

Did you replace the input shaft bearing and especially the throw out bearing? Sounds like that could be the problem here.

No I didnt I just replaced the clutch and flywheel and didnt mess with anything else. If I dont replace either of those bearings will it do anything? Or do you reccomend to just change them and get it out of the way to be safe?

Sounds like the problem is from those bearings I mentioned. It's a good idea to replace them.

Do you have any ideas where I could get those bearings? and thanks for your help I have been trying to find out what that noise was for so long and no one can tell me what it is and it was weird to me because its basically a brand new clutch and it hasnt effected the way the car drives so after a while I just said whatever I guess it will go away.

try adjusting the clutch first. follow the clutch paddle up until you see them. if that does not do the trick then rip her apart and redo throw out bearing.

ya it is a stage one act clutch it only has about 10k miles on it and with it making the noise I really havnt pushed it because i didnt feel like spending more money to replace it. I will try to adjust it first and if that doesnt work then Ill just have to go from there. I mean it doesnt effect the drive of the car at all it just makes an annoying noise that drives me insane and makes me feel uncomfortable that something bad will happen.
