Everything is peachy a year after swapping the VC625 into a 1996 TXT. The 780R clutch and 8:1 gears give the desired top speed. At low speeds like pulling wheeled garbage cans to the road it runs about 2,000 rpm which is OK. But driving like that and picking through tight spots I would like to have a bit more throttle control via a higher rpm. Also, I can't spin the back tires on grass or gravel like many of us can. Not that I want to, it seems like there is something still needed.

I was wondering if my driven clutch might be upshifting too soon. It is the original 22 year old clutch that hasn't been touched. Maybe the spring is weak or I should adjust/swap the spring?
