Default Camaro Flywheel & disc = noisy?

My clutch is slipping badly. I need a new one. Ive been reading other posts about replacement clutches, single mass flywheels etc.
I figure I've narrowed my choices down to a stock replacement clutch (GM, valeo etc.), and pressure plate or go w/ the LT1 Camaro flywheel, clutch disc, and pressure plate. Most posts mentioned a rattling sound when going to single mass. However, the camaro clutch disc has hub springs. I have not found a specific answer to the question of rattling and camaro setup.
i.e. Is the rattling present when you use the cutdown Camaro flywheel, spring clutch disc, and pressure plate? I wouldn't mind going this round but I'm not sure I want all that rattling. If its not bad or non-existant w/ that set up then I may go that route. I haven't pulled everything apart to check my stock flywheel but if its in bad shape I'll probably go the camaro route anyway.
Any comments on that specific setup?

thanks,
md
