Clutch weights/arms/cams?

Post by 78CYCLONEPJ »

I'M BACK more excited then ever. I have done some digging into some other mid range / top speed issues. Something that I forgot about was the fact the when I first bought this Cyclone the primary was pooched. I bought another 102C from a used part dealer. At the time I did not know the 102C came with different setups and bolted it on. So I have been running all this time with a light blue spring instead of the silver one. I changed out the spring and made big gains. My question now is what is the correct arm/cam weight for my 102C. Motor is a KEC 340/22.

Does anyone have a chart for what is stock for different model types? Primarily looking for '78 340 Cyclone setup.
Funny how we celebrate the snow and curse it at the same time.

If you enjoy working on sleds and trying to improve them I have to suggest the manual "Fine Tune Manual 79-83 Snowmobiles" Horicon Works SP-509-H2. It's cover is blue. It is THE MOST important manual in my shop in my opinion. Page after page about all JD Clutches from the 94 /102 / and TR800. Watch Ebay or ask other board members if they have it for sale. (Mine is not LOL) Not a cheap manual either but well well worth it.
