What kinda secondary sping tension on this and WILL IT WORK?

I was told it was a 52/48 when I bought the sled.

Should I throw it as far as I can?

All Imput would be great, Thanks, Ben

Are you refering to an HRP Black Ice 47-40 Helix?
If so it is called a holeshot cut. Shifts progressively from
47 deg to 40 deg by about the 30 MPH portion of the ramped surface.
The rest is straight 40 deg. Add 4 deg to the HRP helix to get the equivalent Doo angle. Brad from HRP says to add 6-8 deg, 4 for the way
it is measured and 2-4 for the coating. I find the upshift acts
4-6 deg more than a std uncoated helix.

As far as whether it works on a Mach, I cant help you there.
I like the holeshot styles on twins!

Hope this helps!
