Its a common problem and a lot of people remove the shield entirely. I have done this with no problems whatsoever. I'm assuming the V8's also have a heat shield around their cat/cats as well? The way I knew mine was the shield was to lean under the car and touch the shield while there was the rattling sound, and it would stop completely.
