Tell us a little bit about what you did with the clutch. You mention
the new input hub. Did you also do the plates in the clutch itself?
Did you disassemble all and clean the flywheel? What tools did you use
to re-center the plates before compressing?
Sorry, but it sounds an awful lot like a bent intermediate plate. Bent
when you reassembled? If so, you'll have to strip it all down again ane
replace that intermediate plate. If you didn't have the clutch apart,
then I'm at a loss.
