Default strange noise after cluch/flywheel install, help...

I just had a ACT HDSS and ACT 8.8# flywheel installed on my 94 teg LS. I noticed a strange sound that happens only when the car is in gear and decelerating. I am still in the break-in period. I am hoping that the noise will go away on its own. Is the noise due to the lightened flywheel? It sounds like the rattling that happens if the revs are too low for a gear and the engine is about to cut out. Have any of you experienced this? What do you think the sound is? Any light that you can shine on this situation will be greatly appreciated.

TIA
Will

I am still in the breakin period so I haven't been able to push it. Drivability wise, starting off from a stop is a little harder. It is still very streetable. The car is going back to the shop to get a proper diagnosis of the noise. It feels as if it will pull harder. That is probably a combo of the added grip and the faster revs.

You'll love the lightened flywheel. I have the prolite 8.8 or whatever and IMO, it's way too heavy.

It made all the difference in my car. I wish I upgraded sooner!
