Im trying to improve my clutching on my viper and thinking of running a 53/43 helix and green sec. spring at 60 degrees.
I was just wondering if there is any other good setups that wont break the bank? Tried doing many searches and turned up with nothing.
Thanks!

try finding a helix from a rx-1 (51/43), you might be happier w/that helix.
i forgot to mention that you can get them for like $50 in the classifieds.

polaris weights work great too. need to grind the tips down to make them clear the spider tho.
what kind of riding are ya always doing? that will always determine how you set up your sled. .

Aggresive trail riding with some lake drags. Im setting this viper up for a 250lb dressed rider, so clutching might be slightly different. It also has a stock track with 96 studs.
I can find a used spring for cheap but not sure if I should use a used spring since some people replace springs annually.

I am installing Hauck's trail perf. clutch kit. its cheap, and easy to install and all that is included is different springs and a multi angle helix. they tell you what degree to set it at with other options based on rpm. I like it because its very simple and you dont have to mess with weights. I'm sure there are other options you could do to yield greater improvment though. its $175.00 US
I added Turks kit: the 53/43 dalton with a green spring at 60 wrap. It is a great trail kit that really gave the sled some snap.

Thats exactly what im hoping for, glad to hear it worked so well!
Will a 51/43 helix be close enough to work similarily?
I would go with the 53/43 and green spring. The helix is around 100 plus the spring 10? I felt I got better gas milage too!
if you use a 51/43( don,t use an apex/attak/rx1 helix) stay with a red secondary spring but...the viper lokes a steeper helix then that.
