Default FS: Clutch Helper Springs!!!! Century Spring P/N 72577

So I think I'm going to to uninstall this. The ends of the spring are very roughly cut with many sharp edges. This prevents the spring from easily spinning as it compresses and decompresses. The result is a pretty loud 'spring' noise when I use the clutch pedal.

Update: I took the spring out and used 220 grit sandpaper to smooth the cut surface and round any sharp edges. Then I applied a small amount of WD-40 to the ends of the spring and the pieces it rests against. So far it's back to being quiet.
