Just want to confirm.

Finally got to drive the car around the block after full Clutch system upgrade. (Zpeed CMACK, EZ street Clutch and LW FW, RJM Pedal with Tilton MC)

I did a search and read a few posts about the Lightweight flywheel and noise.

I get almost no noise or chattering at Idle in Neutral. Sounds normal.

However, when I drive, it sounds like GRINDING METAL.
I did nothing spirited, didn't even get past 3rd gear. I read the comments about sounding like a F250 Diesel, or bunch of rattle cans. Seems to be what I'm experiencing.

Transmission shifts ok. No notches or gear grinding. The RJM pedal is a bit stiff (almost like stock) buy I'll let Clutch and whole system break-in before I adjust it.

One thing I forgot to do, is top up the Transmission fluid. I lost about 1/2 a cup when I did the CMACK, due to those sealed bolts on Transmission input shaft cover.

I don't think that little Fluid loss would cause that grinding. ( REdline MT-85 currently)

So this noise is normal?
