What is the turn around time on the clutch, day, week, etc?
Have you had them out testing long enough to see if they are outlasting the stock AC clutches. I understand the P-85 is a far superior clutch, I am just trying to validate spending twice as much if I don't get twice the life. Though in all reality I will probably only own the sled for another 1-2 seasons.
I am counting, based on Jason's post, that the performance gain will offset the cost.

Worst case turnaround is currently 7-8 days. We are currently stocking the 2010 800 application since we have seen the most demand for it-all others we are building on demand-the clutches are in stock so the wait is only on our machine shop scheduling.
This is the first season of use on the 800, second season on the 700 and big bores there of and we've been selling this set up for the old 1m 8/900(and 1000, 1150 big bores) for four years now.
If you maintain this clutch as expected with any clutch it will far outlast your Cat primary. for high milers, abusive conditions or turbos, we pull them apart twice a season and shim the spider buttons along with checking the weight pin bushings for wear and replacing if neccessary. expect to replace the cover and moveable bushings every season if you are a high miler or turbo owner, every other season if not.
This is easy maintenance to perform and cheap if you stay on top of it. We can supply the tools and parts for you to do this at home-its great beer thirty work!
Like any other clutch, don't expect to thrash on it for 1500 miles with zero maintenance-it will cost you in performance and the wallet:face-icon-small-sho
Hmmmm, I think its time for a clutch maintenance video...
