i would leave it at 3-3 (60deg).....especially if all else is stock and you run lakes. no need to set it tighter for lake running.

I allways run 80............6 and 2 or 70 you get more pressure on the belt for faster down shifting [deep snow] trail running.
faster up shifting if you go down to 60[lets the belt drop faster]Good for ice radar runs.
But can cause a bog if you have good traction out of the hole.
90 is to mutch twist imo really depends on the helix used and the rate in the spring.And temps in the clutches.

so if I was to go 80, what numbers and where.....2 in the bottom and 6 on the outer?
Sorry, Im a newb with this clutching stuff, but Id like to get it dialed in

if you want 80, then 6 on helix and 2 on clutch sheave

ok, is there a chart or something somewhere breaking down the settings, and what improvements they make, and what it takes away?
Or is it all "seat of the pants" tuning?

to get the # of deg in wrap on the spring, you take the # of the hole in the clutch that the spring end is in and add that # to the # of the hole in the helix, that the spring is thru....then you multiply that # by 10.....for ex...hole 3 on clutch and hole 3 on helix.....3+3=6X10=60 deg wrap. the tighter the wrap, the better/quicker that backshift will be, but also the more you are slowing down the shift of the secondary opening up....which could be good or bad, depending on what the sled is intended for......lake race or boondocking, etc.
