hey amn

well if u decsribed the problem a little bit better
it may help

so you have a noise between 2 and 3 thousand rpm...
and the problem was there before? and still is there now even with your foot on the clutch or not?
does it make the noise in neutral while sitting still?

Was it auto before or 4 spd?
If it was manual and you used same clutch and flywheel then it could be flywheel or even pressure plate out of balance, as been mentioned the harmonic can also cause the problem.
