How so?
I was taught the over-load leaf does it's job when the other leafs are compressed enough to make contact @ each end of the over-load. Simply removing it should not impact the other leafs spring rate.
Removing other leafs within a spring pack can impact the spring rate & thus yield drop because they are in full contact w/one another regardless of compression amount. Removing one decreases the amount of weight the others can support.
What am I missing?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
