Clutch Ticking Noise?

[airy52]

I searched but couldn't find anything..

About a month ago I installed a stage 3 sb clutch. I resurfaced the stock dmfw and installed it all myself. I am pretty sure I did everything right. I replaced the throw out bearing, but NOT the pilot bearing.

Tonight when I was idling in a parking spot in neutral, I noticed a ticking sound. Its coming from under the car. It got louder and louder until it was worrying me a lot. I hear it clutch in, out, or engaged at low rpms. It stops sometimes. When I stop and put it in neutral, it takes about 15 seconds to start this ticking again, and sometimes it doesnt tick, unless I depress the clutch. It is very loud though.maybe 4-5 times a second it goes tickticktick. Any ideas?

Help please!!!

No one ??!! Is this "chatter"? What is the cause of it and is it bad?

It's quite possible it's not clutch-related.

Hard to say without any means of hearing the noise, could be more a tappet, exhaust noise, but idk.

I'd have though if it was the clutch, it'll be more regular, rather than occassional.

well when it happens, when i let car idle for 15 seconds or so. It sometimes is nonexistant with the clutch out and when i push it in, it ticks. Its REALLY loud. definately my clutch. il try to get a recording of the sound.
