My case is a '70, so it's the early accumulator.

I read a WHOLE BUNCH of threads from here and other forums with the debate over using a spring (outer and/or inner), running no spring, running no spring plus modifying the piston to remain fixed in the "extended" config...

It got me wondering if running a stiff outer spring would allow for keeping the "shock absorption" feature when applying the rear clutch, while also providing some mechanical assistance with the line pressure to reduce the time for the piston to top out into the case when the front servo is applied. Or, maybe some combination of outer spring and reduced -- not completely blocked -- piston travel.

Kind of thinking out loud on this...
