Is really good to hear you both have had good fortune. Gives me hope. Has any one successfully used a stronger spring yet? Or is drilling still the prefered Method for chatter silencing?
Danny, I reckon you need to ask Jeremy for an old stock bell housing to be certain not to get one from that batch that is obviously poorly cast. re the clanging of the clutches I use the drilled holes (which works well BTW) but I also think that the setting up of the idler screw has a big bearing on the clanging problem and so does the way the clutch is mounted on the shaft key. That's just my feeling but I can promise you that drilling holes won't harm the clutch if you do 9 holes like on attached picture. The recent clutches seem to have stronger springs than the earlier ones and that might be helping the problem. I've built about 8 Honda/Grubee Mark2 rigs without having the clanging the problem. Maybe the HS motor exaccurbated the clanging somehow. If you can get a stronger spring that fits I would try it and see what happens. I also turn my clutch around to even the wear on the pads. That helps it I find.
