Default LS7 Clutch disc?

I got a LS7 clutch kit and put it in and I loved it then the motor let go so everything is back out. When I put it in I didn't pay attention to this but now I have noticed that the four spring packs on the disc have dual springs and the two yellow springs move back and forth about a half inch. The inner blue springs are tight and don't move. Is this normal? I don't want to put it back in just to find out that the disc is no good. I searched every where and couldn't find the answer. Thanks for any help.

It might be a self adjusting clutch, do you have pics?

Mine was the exact same way. I think that it has something to do with keeping vibration down, but I don't know for sure.

I can't get a pic that will show what I am talking about. The outer spring blocks too much to see it clearly. Thanks though.

Thanks for the input. I was hoping someone had one and hadn't installed it yet. I called a couple of well known Chevy high perf shops and they didn't know or wouldn't open a box and see what was up. Can't really blame them for not wanting to open a box though.

Install it and let me know what you think.
