A customer recently asked if we could alter his clutch so it would take less effort to hold it in.
After looking at how the omega spring functions on a 915 trans, I think I could come up with a compact arrangement for the 901/914 that would be a simple bolt in solution.
Instead of attaching to the clutch fork I would attach an omega spring to the pedal in the cockpit.
