Mine definitely has some good tension on it, infact if you press to far it goes over center and pulls it down to the floor (with no clutch linkage attached). Yours is installed the same way mine is/was. Cant imagine the spring being that stretched but I guess it's possible, I currently have 5 4 speed Mopars and none of them have weak springs.
Careful, your character's showing!

Only the pedal is installed so if I push the pedal down about 1/4 to 1/3 down it will snap to the floor. If I lift it with my hand as I get close to the top position it will snap up
If you don't have the clutch or any of the clutch linkage installed that's exactly what you will have.

To be honest, I think I accidentally put that bend in there. I was trying to stretch the spring so add some washers to make the installation easier and then I noticed the kink in the spring.
That might cause issues with the pedal returning properly.
If you have the spring installed I would try it when you get the rest of the clutch setup installed and adjusted properly.
If you have problems you can buy a new spring.
