Where's the throwout bearing?

Your clutch fork shouldn't rub on anything.

Aare the weights centered or off to one side? If off to one side re-center.

Also, is throwout bearing on correctly or backwards?

Can you post a pic? If it's rubbing it won't last long.

I would verify you have the right parts, and if so then your clutch fork would have to be bent. Is the only thing you changed the clutch (ie flywheel, fork pivot, bellhousing, etc.)?

Is the slave cylinder already hooked up to the fork? If not hook it up and push clutch in once and see if it still hits when released.
