    Converting Boyer to PamCo???

    I could understand and deal with it being voltage sensitive. But I have NO spark with 12.8 volts at the coil! Say I did have a weak battery and the voltage dropped below 12v. Shouldnt it fire the ignition when the battery voltage came back up to proper voltage after charging?

    Clutch springs and synthetic oil chat

    Leo, Thank you for your response. The clutch discs had NO discoloration. Looked like a new set. I never had any slipping issues previous. Just didnt disengage smoothly. That was caused by grooves in the basket. That has bee resolved. Cable is lubed religously. Couple things I need to double...

    Clutch springs and synthetic oil chat

    Dam! Are your carbs stock? Any idea what Mikuni flatsides add to hp/tq? Certainly the carbs wouldnt make that much of a difference that they would require stiffer springs??? Anyone have input.
