Default clutch problem!!! HELP!

i have a 02 gt with 74000 on it and i bought with 73000 on it and the second day i had it the syncros went bad... crap i know but i sucked it up and paid 1500 to get them replaced and a new a/c freakin delco clutch wasn't too happy about the clutch but that is what made the syncros go out... well now when ever im cruisin in any gear the clutch pedal vibrates and it's pretty loud... when im in 5th gear at about 45-50 mph it's really loud and when i slow down it's just as loud... it sounds like if there is too much play in the pedal and it's just vibrating from just driving... also while idleing it makes a squeeking noise like a pulley squeeking and if i push in the clutch it stops????? what do y'all think???

Basically, a squeaking noise relative to the clutch/tranny can be narrowed down to 3 things 80% of the time:
T/O bearing, pilot bearing and/or an improperly adjusted clutch.

I can tell you how to adjust it, but this is the easiest thing to do and it doesn't require pulling tranny to do it. Let me know by PM if interested.

+1 on that... haha yeah i took it back to the trans. shop and he said he has no clue what it is... he has never seen that before... so he told me that he would just warranty out the clutch and go from there... he siad that he thinks it is a bad preassure plate and some of the fingers are not flush... idk though it is just annoying... the clutch catches fine but imagine driving down the road cruisin and driving on the reflecters in the lane the whole way down... it's that annoying espeacially when you stop... i hate for **** to be broke or not working properly![:@]
