Tire leg - Clutch pedal return spring

[jackfit]

Thought I would ask for opinions on putting a lighter return spring on the clutch pedal shaft. My L79 327/350 has original stock spring

Does the spring only function as a pedal return or does it help with clutch release in anyway. I guess a faster pedal return will allow you to shift faster... but if you put a lighter spring on, What would the result be?

I have been thinking of doing it for about 30 years, now is the time with my long summer trip coming up

Thanks

Jack

I did have it on the normal position. Changed it to the quick release position. took the car out in 21* no top. and the result::::::

I love the quick release. I should have changed it years ago. Very little pedal movement, my leg is in a straighter strength position , I felt it much easier to hold, I like the less leg movement also.

I am glad I complained about a tired leg. Now I can leave rubber faster with less leg strain. Don't you just love these cars

Went out to garage , looked at box that Zoom Clutch came in. I found out that I am the proud owner of a # 30043 competition clutch. Good for small tracks and the like.

No wonder there was a little pedal pressure. Well , since I got the engine and transmission rebuild, (leaving rubber all over the place) it seems like I should be happy to have a clutch that will stand up to my driving ...... you think

Thanks all for advice.
