Jeff,just use the same weights and spring you are useing now,I am running a dark blue/white polaris spring with A3 weights 18-33 gearing,you will have to realine your secondary.

any idea what an A3 wheight actually weighs, I do not have a stock vmax clutch to compare, i,m running a YPZ that was on it when i bought the sled! I have a P-85 clutch to try and a bunch of polaris weights and springs i,m thinking maybe 10MB weights around 47 grams ea. and the baby blue spring. Any ideas gentlemen?????

Jeff I think 47 grams will be to heavy something around 43-45 I would think the blue spring should work, the clutch will run very close to the frame and you may have to whack the top with a BFH ,Lyle.
