While I had it appart, I put in a new autozone clutch kit (clutch, pressure plate, pilot and throwout bearing). No issues at all after the swap.
I would have guessed it to be an internal issue, but with two transmissons doing the same problem? that normally points to something else. Is it possible you damaged a bearing in the swap?
Hope you figure it out as that transmission is awesome!

I used an xtr clutch from ebay, the whole kit. i also installed a new flywheel from Oriley autoparts. The gears mesh fine and its really loud like the flywheel teeth are rubbing around the bell housing. Gonna redo everything at the end of this month. New clutch and inspect where things might be rubbing. I still drive the car, just annoying.
