I was wondering if a shallow helix (43 degrees) and a tightly wound up secondary spring (green at 120) would produce the same backshift as a steeper helix and a looser spring?
Also, I believe that a shallower helix will allow for more rpms, switching to a steeper helix will bring the rpms down?

With a shallow helix you want less secondary wrap. If you wrap a shallow secondary too tight it will stay in low gear & not upshift causing poor top end & hi belt temperature. Not a good idea.
Ok, I have some kind of a heelclicker set up that came with the sled. I can see there is a red spring and there are about 4 shims on the shoulder of the weight. Not sure about the mid and tip. I have a red and a green spring secondary here, what should I use at what wrap?
Green at 60 with a 43 degree helix should be fine. Sled should run at 84-8600 rpm. You might have to do some fine tuning to get rpm,s there.
