Default Clutch spring kit? What is this?

I just bought and installed my transgo HD2 shift kit. In the kit came a smaller box labeled 7-c2 4l60e clutch spring kit. What exactly is this and how do i install it? What is the benefit and will i feel any difference?

Thank you.

They go in the trans inside the input drum.
The sheet in the box tells you the benefit which is to provide a quicker 3-2 downshift (release of the 3-4 clutches)
They also claim to help prevent centrifugal apply at high rpm, like 7800 rpm, which you're probably not going to see.

I think they're useful when you put in a 3-4 clutch set that can't use the factory helper springs, the transgo springs are stronger to make up for when you take the helper springs out.

You probably won't notice any difference, especially if you just installed the rest of the kit and the trans internals are otherwise stock.
