after spending 3 and 1/2 hours changing my clutch and light Waite fly wheel i drove around to bed the clutch in ive done about 200 miles but now it sounds like my input shaft bearings want to get out it wasnt like this with the old clutch or is it just bad luck i just don't get it i was so careful and made sure every think was new and clean

3.5 hours is pretty good time to change a clutch out, did you have a lift?

This will be why you have the rattle. All light weight flywheels come with this issue because you have now removed the dampening which the stock flywheel (dual mass) had. You either have to live with it or change back to a stock flywheel.
