Don't put it there at all.
This spring makes absolutely no sense in the function of the clutch system. Buy spring from Lingenfelter.

I removed mine and it's never going back in. The clutch feels and operates such better without it!

If I can advise from my own experience... Remove it completely and replace it with a tension spring from Lingenfelter. https://www.tickperformance.com/ling...rt-l360091410/ I still don't understand why someone put that spring there. When I tested the difference without the OEM spring and with the OEM spring, I came to two findings. 1: The clutch pedal returns up more slowly. 2: In the end position, the clutch pedal is not so hard. So the only thing I can think of why someone in GM put it there was because they were get scared the clutch was too hard or to make it easier for less skilled drivers to work the clutch pedal. I have driven countless cars, tractors, trucks, bulldozers and other vehicles. But the Camaro was the only one I encountered with a clutch spring that pushes the pedal to the floor instead of from the floor. I was totally unhappy when I brought the car and I didn't know how to drive it. Then I figured it out while bleeding when the clutch pedal disappeared under my foot. I tossed it out installed a custom spring and felt like coming home from a party and kicking off dress shoes you've outgrown a long time ago  Of course, the OEM spring is no longer there...

I did the same as George, Leave the spring out. I did add the spring from the link above, You can run it with or without either spring.

I've been running my Triple Monster w/o any return spring or OEM for years. Least resistance feel. I've tried adding an assistance spring but didn't like the added resistance.

Yeah I didn't mind mine with no spring but figured a help spring may help avoid the clutch sticking some experience.

Does anyone know if any sensors are affected like cruise control if the clutch pedal doesn’t return to its stock height ?
UPDATE - per Tick “if the pedal is adjusted too low from its stock height you will have to do a pedal relearn procedure “ Last edited by camguynj; 09-02-2022 at 08:56 AM. |
