You don't need anywhere near that kind of spring. Put a fresh stock clutch pack back in, put a SE 380 spring in if you must. Adjusted properly and filled with Formula+ primary fluid you should be more that good.

the clutch wiz needs that heavy duty spring to work rt but pulls in like butter the se 380 is harder to pull in then stock that's why I was thinking that route but Barnett says spring convertion is also easier then stock

No clutch wiz, LOL!!! Go with stock pack and a 340 spring. You should be fine. Did a '14 with cams,a/c,exhaust, and tuned at 115tq, holds fine. The rushmores have a 340 spring std. You want to spend a bunch of money on a barnett coil spring conversion, im sure it'll work fine but I don't think its needed.

Before you go buying a new clutch, disassemble and put some sandpaper to your friction disks. Maybe look into a VPC.

VPC won't do squat if the torque bites hard below 3,000 - 3,500 rpm, which is where the VPC starts working.
