New Engine
JSchwinn:
So the swap was a success! New engine is in and appears to be running great. My only issue out of the process is I'm not getting a whining noise coming from the tranny when I'm stopped in neutral with the clutch disengaged, once I press the clutch in the noise goes away. I assume its the throw-out bearing but not positive. My syncro's are shot anyways so a "new" used tranny is on the to-do list when I put in my 8.8
Big Chuck:
Nice job!

That describes the symptoms of throw out bearing noise perfectly.
Glad the swap went well though. Nice work!

TOB only make noise when clutch pedal is pushed down. When foot off clutch TOB not spinning on pressure plate forks. Noise is most likely in trans.

Makes sense Bob.
But, strangely, Ford actually, put out a TSB to apply a preload to the clutch to eliminate the noise in their TOBs. If you push the clutch in, you are putting pressure on the throw out bearing. If the bearing was sloppy/noisy, the pressure would stop the noise.
Would you think Input shaft bearing?
