1968 Coronet RT. Got the z bar and all clutch linkages installed today. Car is not in running order yet. There is an over-center spring that I have not put in. When in this spring will pull on the clutch pedal toward the firewall. When installing a modern day clutch is this spring needed? Isn't the force needed much less compared to a 1968 clutch? Right now without that spring the pedal force required seems about right. I think if I installed the spring the pedal would never get off the floor. If this spring is absolutely needed, how the heck do you get it on? This thing is one HEAVY DUTY spring!
