Default Clutch Chatter when in neutral

I installed a SLP clutch kit about 15k ago. After the car warms up, sometimes in neutral there is a chattering from the tranny/clutch. Whenever i depress the clutch it stops. The chatter is bad sometimes and non existent others, Im thinkin i need a new throw out bearing?? Any help would be appreciated Thanks

Sounds like gear rattle to me, this can occur when there is no load on the driveline like in neutral.Mike N.

Mine does the same when in neutral - it almost completely goes away when pressing in the clutch pedal too. I'm assuming it's normal.
