Question Noise from transmission!

I recently had my shop install the clutch/flywheel setup thats listed in my sig, but when I start the car everything is fine except that when the car is stopped and in neutral with the clutch pedal released there seems to be some kind of rattling noise coming from the transmission, but as soon as I push the clutch pedal in the noise goes completely away and theres no more noise, release the pedal, noise. Push it in, no noise.

What do you think could be the problem? The clutch only has about 300 miles on it and ive been breaking it in properly, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

if you know anyone else with an f-body go listen to theres. it is normal for them to make some noise because when you engage the clutch with the trans in nutral (pedal up) there is no pressure on the throwout bearing so it can rattl. also in this condition the inputshaft is turning lus all the driven gears are coastin on the output shaft. this usually makes noise and is comon to alot of manual transmission cars. i know mine does it. if it is really loud you might need to be concernd.

Its not really loud, I was just wondering if its normal, but from what i'm hearing so far from freinds and forum members it should be just fine, thanks for the input!
