Me and my dad just replaced his clutch in his 94 Mustang V6. We put in a new clutch cable (used from a 99 GT), brand new factory replacement clutch (not ford Volant or something), and had the flywheel resurfaced. We filled the tranny with GM Syncromesh, and took it for a spin, it feels 100x better than before, but the pedal is really springy, and soft. My clutch on my 94 GT is pretty firm (stock clutch/cable 133,000 miles ) and he was wanting it to be firmer. Is anything wrong with his, i mean it feels good, just soft. Its not loose, or anything. It takes NO effort to get it down, and it pops right back up.

New clutches are always easier to push in than old worn out ones. It is probably just lighter than you expect because it is a V6, so the clutch doesn't have to be as strong. I can get you a stage 3 clutch with a higher pedal effort and more clamping power, but it sounds to me like he has the clutch effort all the V8 guys wish they had.
