Default Follow up on Reduce Effort Clutch

I had my 1999 twin cam ultra Classic dynoed today. It has 78hp at 90torque. Way over stock. Looks like it has a stage 2 big bore kit in it. I notice all the big bore kits come with a heavier clutch spring. I think I should have left mine alone. When It's completely warmed up and I lug it a little I get a little sqealing noise. I wonder if that's the clutch slipping a little. Maybe should not have put the reduced effort clutch in. Most of the time it's fine, just when I lug it I get the noise. What do you guys think. Should I go back to the old set up? I should have had it dynoed first. See I'm the third owner. The orginal owner told me it had a big bore in it, but guy at the Harley shop didn't think so. So that's why I dyno it. Help

you can leave ball and ramp in from easy clutch kit, but change out to stock spring or screamin eagle spring.
