Exclamation my mechanic scared the crap out of me...

My mechanic already took the engine out of my car, and I went to pick up the flywheel for resurfacing. I saw the clutch and he told me my clutch looked GOOD. I told him that it shouldn't be because when I would press the clutch in while the engine was running, an aweful sound came out from under the car. When it was idleing, I would hear a light whistle sound. He said my trans might be damaged. DAMN! I told him that my gears went in, and engaged, and he scared me to the point that I seconed guesses it. However, I remember my gears engaging and making a horrible sound when I would press the clutch; Like a metal on metal sound and while pressing the clutch in, the clutch pedal would even feel weird.
I've had a blown out tranny and this felt nothing like it. I think my 1st, 3rd and 5th went in as opposed to now, all th e gears go in.

someone tell me that the bearing or something clutch related gave out because I already bought one. :/

he said he's not completely sure about the whole situation and also said that the bearing was good. But, I have the brand new TOB in the trunk so we'll compare Saturday.
