this probably explains it better... I put the inner shims on the other side of the B023 bearing seeing as the r40 only has a 2 bearing clutch

However I had the engine was a bit rich and was not producing enough power (I am running the JLR evo3 ).

I tried to use the search option, but I did not find to much info.
p.s. I will post a pic of my track once I am home from work!!
Thanks Jason
CraigM posted a rough diagram of his clutch setup routine. I use this method and have very good results. Very easy to setup this way and works great.
