Does the noise go away when u depress the clutch ?
If so its probably tour gearbox mainshaft bearing,
check the gearbox oil level ..

I agree with the mainshaft bearing. When I bought my S it was like that. Even though the sound of mine was like dragging an iron clawfoot bathtub
behind the car with a PA system blarin the sound of it directly into my eardrums!!! I still don't have full hearing in my left ear after that.
You should have seen the bearing and the oil!
The oil was a shiny goo, the bearing was split open, and the ball bearings looked like golfballs.
If at first you don't succeed. Build, build again.

i wasnt sure if it was a big un or not cause if you miss a bearing with the sharpbuilt kit you get that sound, i agree with the rest on this one
