Bad noise when clutch is disengaged! Help

Well update on clutch noise. Cars sat since last post in feb. except for startups. Car is all together. I got thinking and put the car backup on stands and made sure trans was full of lube. Then I fired it to be sure noise was still there, it was... Then I put a floor jack under the trans and applied a little lift to the tranny. Fired car and wow less noise when clutch pushed in! Jacked it up some more and clutch noise gone... In my earlier posts recap, new TO bearing, new bronze crankshaft input shaft bushing, lightly lubed. Since engine/bell/trans/trans mount are all bolted together, could the possibility of the trans main input shaft bearings being bad be eliminated? My thought is it has to be in the clutch linkage. Pushing up the trans should have no effect on any other alignment right? Need 2 sets of eyes and a better back and neck for this stuff, LOL
