Knocking noises

Starting a new thread to hopefully get responses because the old one keeps changning subjects. So heres the deal, did a swap from an AOD to ZF, everything worked fine, except there was a grinding noise, found out the grinding noise was the starter (different between auto and manual trans's), but now when its running and I put the clutch in, it starts going "knock knock knock knock knock" like theres a machine gun in the bellhousing somewhere......anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Heres a link to the original thread....
