Clutch help

As you know I recently rebuilt my trans and t-case.
I installed poly trans mount and motor mount, so now I notice more noise.
But now I hear something from I believe the clutch that sounds like a cicada/locust, clutch chatter?
The old mechanical clutch linkage was alot longer. I had to adjust the new linkage way in to make it rest on the clutch release fork.
The instructions that came with the clutch say hold the brake, put it in 3rd, give it gas and dump the clutch. It should stall in 2 -3 sec. If adjsuted properly. Mine does.
It says to put it in neutral and release the clutch and you should be able to put it in 1st. Not happening.
I do notice once in awhile a slight gear grind when shifting to 1st or reverse with the clutch mashed.
Also notice when I slip the clutch it sounds like sand paper, never heard the clutch before.
It's a bowden/beck pressure plate.
Thoughts?
How can I check to see if it's adjusted properly?
