G50 clutch makes grinding noise when pedal floored ALL the way down

About 9k miles ago I replaced my g50 clutch with a new sachs spring centered unit, did all the recommended cross arm updates and it has shifted like a dream since. I Did not touch the master or slave, did not bleed. In normal operation it is fine. If i really floor the clutch, as in push it all the way down then reeeealy keep pushing i get a rang-rang-rang-rang metallic interference noise you might expect was caused by a rotating part hitting a static part.

You might say, well don't push it down so hard. Fair but I'm wondering what the noise might portend. So far as i know there is no adjustment to be had with the hydraulic clutch?

Ideas?
