I agree.

In addition if the bushings on the peddle shaft are maintained along with the bellcrank bushings there is much less wear in the pin hole areas due to absorption.

Holes get elongated and pins get worn because bushings aren't serviced either due to neglect or the fact they are overlooked, maybe even not known to a previous owner to exist.

With those bushings worn out, possibly even gone, it puts allot of extra pressure on the entire clutch linkage and can take significantly more pressure to activate the clutch.

My factory GM set up is good to go in the GTO.

Tanx for posting though as others may be in need.
