Has anyone else with the lighter flywheels noticed that the sounds seems to be coming from the transmission, and not the engine?

i never considered that since i figured my sprung clutch disk would settle it down. i'm putting it up in the air Monday to drop the tranny; i'll take a listen with it lifted & see what i think.

i always thought my release bearing was shot or something.....

I now have a 2006 Variocam Plus 3.4L from a Cayman in my 986 with the AASCO / Stage 2 Spec Sprung Clutch. I also replaced the entire arm and throwout bearing when I did the swap, so everything is good shape. Mine makes the same rattle now as it did with my 3.2L.

When I put on the RSS underdriven crank pulley Dampener, it didn't change the sound in any way at all either.
