noise is still there, haven't had any disengagement/engagement problems though, just sounds like rocks in a cofffe can or rod knock with clutch pushed in but car not moving, seems to come and go but always loudest on a cold start
hmm

If the clutch disengages okay, but you're hearing that noise, sounds like the pilot bearing has disintegrated. Do you feel vibration on the shifter when the clutch is disengaged? And what about when it's engaged?

no i don't notice any vibration in the shifter, however the shifter seems to sway a little while driving with the contours of the road/engine movement, figured that normal?
i noticed i can sometimes make the noise louder if i put it in 3rd with the clutch engaged and then push a little harder up as it's already in 3rd

Weird, but I am having the same problem. I pulled the tranny the other day and everything seems to look ok cept for the fact that the shaft has play. Does anyone know of places to get the input shaft bearing?
