My motor setup:
306 with 10 to 1 compression
trick flow twisted wedge heads
E-303 Cam
Professional products upper and lower intake
70mm throttle body and EGR
30lb injectors and mass air flow
I currently have a T-5 tranny with a FRPP clutch and the pedal is extremely hard and works like shit. I would like to have a soft pedal but still be strong enough to hold the power. Any info will help, Thanks

So change the clutch quadrant. This will help ALOT.
On a side note, why 30 lb injectors?

I have the 30lb injectors because that is what i was told to run with my setup, the spark plugs still look all white like it is to lean but the motor runs great and very strong.
Back to the clutch, i do have an adjustable clutch cable with the adjuster thing on the firewall and i had to put a different quaderant thing inside the car, which type of quaderant should i get?

I'm running a King Cobra in my 96 and am happy with it. I have power shifted it at around 7K RPM without a problem. Be sure to lube the throw out bearing, thats why my old clutch had a hard pedal and worked like shit.
