yup it sure will, bend it very very slightly though, doesnt matter which way you bend it really cus you can put it on eitherway. i usually bend mine right at the end so theres no creases or pressure points in the spring. it will make your stroke longer though so your need to adjust the c/s again

remember to go slow do it a small amount at a time and check it on the machine after each bend till you get it where you want. I also recommend to use a roll bend and not a sharp edge bend it will last longer.
