You should not have a problem with any of the Healey clutchs being a  
heavy pedal. If your pedal is hard to push I would first check the  
bores of the slave and master cylinders. Then the next thing that may  
cause a problem is that the inside of the flex hose can colapse  
causing the pedal to return slowly.
