The drag of the bearing to it's shell is simply greater
than the friction of the clutch fingers to the bearing
shel
will probably just toss it and install a new one.
The throw out arm on a GT6 pivots on a ball so I don't think that's it.

after installing it on the carrier? It may be binding
a bit.
while. Once the 'finger'
wear just a bit it will quiet down. (hopefully??!!):-)

I just completed a mechanical rebuild on a 1973 GT6. I installed a new clutch,
pressure plate and throwout bearing. When the clutch is fully released, the throwout
bearing makes a chirping sound like a bunch of deranged crickets. When I press in the
clutch even slightly, the noise goes away.
