Default VVT swap - 1.6 OEM clutch with 949 flywheel, good combo and how much noise?

90 Miata with VVT swap coming, no forseeable boost. Autox/track/street

I've gone with a couple others advice and stayed with 1.6 OEM clutch but I need to pick flywheel. 949's looks good for the price, aluminum. I've been running what I believe is a Fidanza 7lb flywheel. Lots of noise on decel. Will 949's be similiar? Does more miles equal more noise?

Any other suggestions to match with 1.6 OEM clutch?

Thanks.

Wait you have a flywheel already? Buy a new friction disk and call it good.

We may have to determine if this is the right part when we pull the engine. I'm also unsure if they are different for 1.8 and 1.6.

I can't find my records/reciept for the flywheel.
