ok, i would get a new chain (i usually do this whenever i change drivetrain components, but not always, chains are cheap enough that it's usually worth it). If you don't get a new chain, clean yours, lube it and make sure there are no binding links. Then when you put your wheel back on, make sure it's centered in the stays/track ends(or dropouts). and components take time to mate, so give it some time.

also, i have a feeling that this noise might be coming from your chain being too tight, because 3 teeth is a big jump to make without adding links. get a new chain and see how that works, 3/32 chains are cheap as dirt so it can't hurt.
