I bought an all stock 2007 m8 153 last year. Sled is in good condition and ran really good 3500ish miles on it. No issues there. Biggest issue I found was with the stock Challenger track. Track is completely done. I got a 2.6 Powerclaw to run on it so that should be handled. I bought an SLP full pipe kit for it also. Took a look at the cylinders and the pistons while I had the Y-pipe off. They look great. I pulled the cover off of the primary and the rollers spin but seem to be a little loose. The inner and outer bushings on the sheave and the outer cover have a fair amount of play in them also. Fluid was changed last year in the diamond drive and still looks good.
Questions
1. It has Cutler adjustable weights in it Yellow/white primary spring and orange secondary. My plan was to add a little weight to the primary and see how it does cause I was really happy with the way the clutching felt last year. Anybody see any issues with that?
2. Is it worth maintaining the primary clutch? It looks good but do these clutches have issues coming apart also. I just don't want to put well over $100 into a clutch that might be on it's last leg.
3. Any other items that should be inspected while I am tearing into this thing?
