Team has completed the calibration for the 2013 Arctic Cat 800 proclimb with the Tied driven clutch. With the 2.6 lug track we found that the stock drive clutch weights were too heavy. We tested in Island park Idaho again for 7 days. Three days we were in powder coming over the hood.

What we also found was a longer Arctic Cat OEM belt that seemed to work better for our calibration. The 0627-086 Cat belt comes factory on the 600 Arctic Cat race sled. It is roughly 3/8" longer than the 084 belt that comes factory on the proclimb machines. The 084 and the 086 are supposed to be the same compound, and the tuning showed this as well.

We settled on the 67 gram Arctic cat weights(0746-695) with the stock yellow/white drive spring. This year we will be providing a 20 tooth gear in the kit and a little stronger secondary spring as well.The spring will be our black/white with helix angles of 71-57.36/71-55.36. This was all tested between 6300 to 9500 ft.

The kits can be ordered on line or through any TEAM Industries parts dealer.The new kit will be part number 520907.

Yes, we have tested with the MDS.

The Team secondary will:

Give smoother upshift
Quick backshift
2-4 mph track speed
We are seeing 50 to 60 degrees in lowered belt temps
It floats

I changed alot of things on my 12 PC800 this off season. Added a 3" with tooth avids but also added a 20t top and a Team Tied Secondary along with a basket of other goodies. I was blown away seeing 50+ mph trackspeeds and lower belt temps.

I ordered my Team Tied from Michelle at Oregon Power Sports and Eric at RacinStation saved my *** by shipping me a properly machined Team Helix since Team didn't even have one. I highly recommend both Michelle and Eric. I would not order directly from Team.

This would explain why I was having clutching issues this last weekend with mine. Defenitly could tell spring was to weak. Would have to climb to operating rpm. Longer belt also makes sense. With proper deflection with 083/84 your kinda deep in the secondary.

With smaller drivers you may need to recalibrate the speedometer

It will allow the belt to ride higher in secondary which will give you a little lower gear when secondary is all the way closed.

I will give the longer belt 86 a try why not. I am just changing my secondary spring out right now going to try the Dalton green/silver i think if i remember correctly.

So are you implying you have the "belt fix"?

Sounds real close to my setup

I have a 2013 153 M8 LE with the MDS weights and Team Tied and 20/49 gearing

I have the MDS weights empty at 72.7 grams with Black/Green 120/340 Polaris spring
In the Team I have the 71/55 .36 helix with Black/Purple spring

I have a Black/White spring I will need to try.

Interesting info on the 0627-086 belt. I will have to give that a shot too.

I took like 3.3 grams out of my weights in order to get the RPM back up vs my 2012 with 083 belt. Between the track and belt, it sucks your RPM down.

Most of my good off trail riding is 8000-10000 ft. The other day I was climbing a hill with some powder and a good base, and was seeing between 8100-8200. At the top of the hill, the altimeter said 9800 ft.

I tried the the straight 57 helix with black/purple but it gave me a weird flat spot that I didn't like. I might try it again later down the road, with a different spring.

will this "kit" include everything listed except the belt?
this sounds just about perfect for my elevations. I live at 6200 ft and most riding is 7000-10000
