I&#39;ve got a 01zrt600 and I&#39;m interested in a clutch kit. I&#39;ve read some have put there own together using all sorts of different shapes and sizes of weights, and helix angles and such and I get lost :bash: . What I&#39;d like to know is if this is a better way to tune in a clutch or will a off the shelf kit be just as good? Are there any recommendations for a <strike>good</strike> great off the shelf clutch kit for this machine which is all stock other than a gutted air box and a 1 1/2" paddle track. Also, what are some of you using for a home built clutch kit. The majority of my riding is groomed trail with the occasional "Where do you think your going" lake blast. I&#39;d love to get a better holeshot just like everyone else. I currently only have about 1300 miles on the sled and I&#39;m wanting to go thru the whole cleaning process and while I was at it I wanted your opinions on tuning it.
Thanks a bunch

I just installed an erlandson kit in my 97 zrt 600 and man what a difference,i was looking for the same thing as you,HOLESHOT,and i got it.i can&#39;t believe how much quicker it feels and how much better it pulls all the way through the powerband,they do strongly recomend studs with their kits but i think your track will make that up especially in loose snow,
Others also suggest D&D or Goodwin kit&#39;s,have not heard enough good about black magic.
I see you must ride up here where i live,i bet you have been to pub&grub up by Valhalla.

57/50 helix....I think they were stock on the mountain T-cat .....and the red secondary spring from A/C........very cheap and you will be pleased with the results.

Can&#39;t say Ive been there. We mostly ride from your cabin in Minong (washburn county) to Iron River and Amnagon. I&#39;m quite sure there are a few differences from your 97 to my 01 as far as clutching set up and components, But, with your Erlandson kit, What did it do to your top? Increase-Decrease. How is it on the twisty trails? How are they about getting your order shipped. I&#39;ve recently heard D & D&#39;s shipping isn&#39;t happening. lost orders, Back orders, on-line order delay&#39;s, ECT.... Have you heard anything goog or bad about Hammertime kits? Thanks for your responce. I&#39;ll diffinetly look into the Erlandson.

Erlandson is very fast on their orders,and great service,they will help you all the way.
i really did&#39;nt gain much on the top ,but i did&#39;nt lose anything either,but man it sure woke up the bottom end and the midrange,which is great for the twistys,that&#39;s where i had my problem before,it was like it had to wind up coming out of a corner,ow it is flat out gone,it really pulls now,and it is a lot quicker.
they also give easy to follow instructions i would recommend them to anyone with any brand sled.
i ride to iron river quite a bit but then i go north from there,sometimes south to drummond,nice radar run happening on feb 4th at the eagles nest in the delta area.
