Adding weight to Ulmer clutching.

[Furgwa]

Hey guys, I installed a MPI S/C kit, and Allen recommended to add 3 thin washers to both the heel and the tip on top of the current washers and inserts. On the heel, I already have 2 washers, and one tungsten insert, and 3 more washers will not fit . I am definitely not a clutching expert, would he mean 1 washer per cam x 3 cams? A) the STP instructions say to use inserts by themselves B) the set screws aren't long enough.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. It's a Sunday, sky is blue, have to try this out today!

Run the tungsten insert & 4 washers in the heel. Add 3 washers to your current tip setting. You will need to do that on each weight.

Ok, that sounds good. No issue adding the washers for the tip to the back side, correct? And tuck all 4 washers on the heel under one screw?

All 4 washers with 1 screw (no o-ring). Tip just be sure to do all three weights the same (if using 3 or less washers put o-ring under washers).

Ahh perfect, thank you very much.

Looks like I'll stick to fixing air-conditioners for a living... Lol
