Is my throwout bearing the prob?

First of all i just put a new centerforce dual friction clutch in my car. I put a new throwout bearing in and immediately it started chirpin and clattering when the clutch was in. Now if the clutch is in, it makes whizzing noises in my transmission. If i let the cluth out and push it in real fast the whizzing goes away for a few moments than returns. The clutch works great but sometimes when i let it out it makes a quick whizzing noise. Why would my throwout bearing go bad in 600 miles? what precautions should i tale when i put a new one in? Thanks.

If you used too much anti-s. it can do that as well. allowing the bearing to slip instead of spinning with the presure plate

Maybe you got oil on the flywheel or pressure plate or the clutch? did you change your pilot bearing?

Yes we did put a new pilot bushing in. I had some oil leaking out of where my oil pressure sender goes in the block. I dont know if any of that could get up and in there. The t/o bearing was from autozone and i think maybe they gave me a non self aligning one. could that have been the problem? i really dont want to replace one every 600 miles
