Default Vibration after clutch install!!

Just replaced my clutch and now there is a definative vibration, noticable even in neutral at around 1300 rpm's. gets worse at 55 and 75. Thought I checked everything, flywheel looked fine. Any ideas??
thanks

Take a lesson, everytime you change out a new clutch you have to resurface the flywheel unless its new
