Joe,
What type of belt are you running on the sled? Also my bet would be clutch alignment. Alignment on the CK3 chassis is very important. These motors love to move around. I have had great luck with the new HPX belts on my 99 Mach 1. The gates extreme belts would not last long though because they are not of the exact dimension of a real ski-doo belt for that machine. The HPX belts and the ski-doo belts are of the same dimensions and both are top cog design. Hope this helps you some!!
