Default Got my clutch...Questions

Got my clutch in the mail yesterday and I have a question.

It is the centerforce dual friction clutch . The newer 12 inch design that is supposed to be doing real well for people.
Anyways...
I notice that the pressure plate has these weights on them that are supposed to be for increaseing the clamping force as rpms increase...I understand this much.

the only problem is....I think it is going to cause some annoying rattling/vibration sound. It is just a metal to metal set-up and it will obviously rattle.
I just hope it is not loud enough to notice inside the car. I am sure it will be even worse than normal since I am running poly motor mounts
Hopefully the duals and longtubes can dround it out.

anyone have this clutch or a clutch that uses a pressure plate with weights?
do you notice any rattling?

No one has really posted this as being a problem...so maybe I am wrong. But it sure looks like it is going to make some noise

thanks a lot, Troy
