I finally have my turbo kit installed . It's a ulmer 180 kit . I have some Dalton adjustable weights with the set screw slugs. Is there a certain way to use the slugs. The guy I bought them had them set to the overall weight that Allen suggested but the slug was set at the heel and Allen said that the slug should be set to the front. I put the slug at the front for the time being and haven't had a chance to test the sled yet. I believe they are 76.6 grams right now.

If I get a test ride in and the rpm on the top is not right what do I do. Move the weight to the middle or heel or try a lighter weight slug at the tip. Just need some info from the guys that have played with these weights a bit so I have a rough idea what I should be doing on the trail.
 
Haven't used those specific weights but have others, if your not getting enough rpm then you need to try a lighter slug, typically changing where the slug is in the weight will change shift characteristics but won't necessarily change overall RPM
