strange sounds from the tranny

[lilr4o8]

i have a 98 1.8 5sp with a south bend stage3 and lw flywheel that i got in about 9k ago other than that just a chip and exhaust. just noticed the other day that when i tried launching at around 3grand or so it made a whinnying sound and didn't go anywhere for a second.
any suggestions?

If you didn't move and the rpms climbed it was slipping.

Ya thats the clutch slipping... you could possibly have warped the flywheel as lw ones are easier to do that too or you tore the clutch up pretty quick. Although I guess you could also have a rear main or transmission seal leaking into there.

How many launches?

really not that many launch's so that it would slip maybe 15 tops. i guess that it could be my clutch slipping but im not smelling clutch when this happens. so it might be the flywheel.ugh i've had so many problems with this car already!
