Help! Grinding metal on metal sound after changing clutch.

I was driving to get some lunch today and noticed some screeching. Sounded kind of like brakes, wasn't even sure if it was from my car at first but it kept getting worse and louder and it is definitely my car. Doesn't seem to happen when I just roll the car a bit, only when I have the clutch engaged.

Anybody know what it could be?

I don't think it would be the ACD as there is no flashing lights, and I don't know what else to check.

Clutch has only been in for 150 miles or so. And I only had a couple of minutes to look at it before I had to get back to work. I'll take a sound clip and post it when I get to look at it more tonight.

Thanks,

Got back to my car that night and was able to get a better look at it. It was just a rock that got caught up in the brake heatshield. From the way it was sounding this was the first thing I looked for but I couldn't see anything so I thought it had to be something to do with my clutch install... nope.
