Help with Clutch noise

[twoskies]

hi

ok, truck sat for a couple weeks, was waiting for a starter and was on call, got starter installed today, checked starter gear and flywheel clearance, was .021, hooked everything else back up, truck started perfectly, no starter noise, birds were singing, everything was good
let truck warm up, thought id go for a drive, pushed clutch pedal in and grinding noises, when truck is in gear(pedal all the way up) and in neutral, no noise
clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing only have about 3000 miles on them

i do have about an inch or more of play before clutch engages from the top, after that , its noisy all the way to the floor

Thanks for any help
