Hey everyone, looking at a 40-10 Heel clicker kit for my 04' Viper S. Done tons of reading and look like guys have had good success with these. I don't want to spend $400 on Bender's clutch kit. Yikes! So heres what I'm working with:
Primary clutch is bone stock. Secondary clutch has 51/45 helix with green spring wrapped @ 60.
Bender triple pipes, 144 1.5" track, geared down 1 tooth from stock so 20 tooth I believe?
Sled pulls hard until about 70-75mph then lays down. RPM's peak around 8600-8700. Engagement is right at 4000 rpm's. Primarily do trail riding.
Thoughts? Would Heel Clickers be a good solution?

moneywise..your not going to really be saving money going to heel clickers, as youll need the kit which is $235 to your door then youll need a new helix which is another $100-130.
so your cheapest route out is to change the front clutch weights and spring to something that more fits what your trying to do with the sled. you didnt mention what kind of riding you do or what you want the sled to do so youd need to elaborate on that.

It will primarily be trail riding. I would just like the sled to pull harder I suppose. I also know I'm leaving alot out there by running the stock primary clutch setup.
"pulls harder" what does that mean?
you want more mid range, more topend, faster out of the gate.??
just generally looking at what you have there, you have a longtrack, big lug track and geared down, so your already ruling out topend as the parts are all wrong for that, unless you realize that 100mph "indicated" on the digital speedo is all your going to get and the actual mph will be like 85-90mph tops.
to get accurate help you need to be detailed or else all anyone can do is guess..................

Yea, it's not going to be a lake racer so I don't need it to do anything over 90mph really so that's fine. Just thought 70 was a little slow. But yes, more mid range power would be nice.
then switch to something more aggressive in weight profile like a 8ab or 8ca those will be way,way more aggressive upshift then the stock 8ek weights.
8ab-4.5 middle,3.6 tip with a green white green primary spring your helix with your green dot spring will make quite a differance in it.

My viper has a stock engine, with a 136 x 1.5'' and i've only seen 74.6 on the gps. I'm running heel clickers and a pretty decent trail set up. it is only a 118 horse engine. Don't expect a hell of a lot more out of it. I'd like to try a fully clipped track for a few more mph's. At the moment i have a every third clipped track with 8 inch wheels out back and 8 tooth cogs gear for 100 mph (on paper/in a perfect world)
