Planning on putting a noiseless SC in Eastwood mach 2

I should get my Eastwood mach 2 soon I'm kinda wary of the high output single coil pickup (just the 60cycle hum) so if it does bother me I was thinking about which noiseless single coil to put in. I don't have experience with alot of single coil pickups as I'm a Les Paul player but I remember I used to have a squier strat that I replaced the single coils with fender ultra hot noiseless pickups and the bridge pickup(as I remember) freaking rocked! I got to digging in the parts drawer and I still have it too! The cover is beat up but it's vintage white anyways I'm going to try to find a black pickup cover for it to match the guitar. These pickups are pretty thick so a regular strat pickup cover won't work.... Specs for the pickup are 21.5k(noiseless) alnico 5 gen4 noiseless.
 
Well, it depends on what you want your guitar to sound like...single coil? humbucker? You couldn't pick a pickup until you know what the EQ of the guitar is, or will need. But you can at least look at what's available.

It's a high output single coil (in the original guitar) and if it sounds anything like the the pickup it's based on(fs-1) this will be a welcome upgrade but I'm only going to change it if the noise bothers me. I actually forgot all about this set. (Ultra hot noiseless strat)I usually don't like strat pickups but this bridge pickup was pretty cool sounding and kinda fits the EQ of the fs-1 just more output of my memory serves me correctly.
