like this ever since i bought the car, very annoying when trying to shift fast because i have to SLAM the pedal down, and traffic is even worse. is there something i can do to make the pedal lighter?

What kind of clutch cable do you have? You can at least see if it is non-adjustable by lookin at the clutch fork, where the cable hooks up.

Good luck.

All my v8 mustangs had stiff clutch's (two were stock, two were KC's)
My v6 mustang was EXTREMELY light....not sure what to say, i've always heard that mustang clutch's are stiff (i've driven about 30 v8 stangs and so far i find this to be true)
