High pitch noise when clutch is enganged. Vid inside.

I've recently developed a problem when I press down on my clutch. It's a high pitch noise as you can hear from the video I attached. I suspected a bad TOB but for the most part I read and found a bad TOB only happens when not engaging the clutch.

The car shifts great with no issues.

I have a ACT 2600, stock resurfaced flywheel, OEM clutch fork, and TOB. I have roughly 300 miles on this setup.

Where is your pedal engagement window? At the top of the pedal or 1-3" off the floor?

You could be over-extending the clutch and contacting the clutch disk hub.

sorry for the late response. car was down with other issues. it is grabbing quite low. I just realized that the noise starts even with the slightest amount of pressure on the pedal. of course it's loudest when I have the pedal all the way down.

Sounds like the TOB I just took out of my car. Except mine didn't make any noise when I pushed the pedal in. I took it out immediately once I heard the sound though.

Maybe yours is more far gone? Mine sounded exactly like yours when the clutch pedal wasn't pressed. Mine was going out due to the pressure plate bolts coming loose. This caused the fingers to apply pressure to the TOB at all times. Not to mention the clutch disengagement issues that only got worse.
