Default Cluth kit on kodiak 450

Has anyone put a clutch kit on their kodiak 450? What kind, and was it worth it?
I have 26 in 589's on mine and I was looking for a little more low end punch.

EPI makes a great kit for the 450-700 Grizzlies, and you can even get the new greaseless roller/cam plate slider kit and eliminate the need to clean and regrease the clutch.Plus,you can pick the weights for more low end grunt, along with shimming the primary clutch to give you more low end (this may affect top end speed) Plus there are several mod shops that can machine your primary sheave for better low and top end performance. UTV inc is a good one, check with them and see what they have for you. Don't see why the same kit for the Ultramatic in a Grizzly 450 wouldn't work for a Kodiak, but you should check to be sure. If no one makes a kit, adding a 1mm shim to the primary will give you a noticeable bump in low end power, and only cost you a few dollars.
