01 Raptor 660 Clutch Slipping

My 01 Raptor 660's clutch slips on heavy throttle. I replaced the clutch plate kit and used heavy duty springs and it still slips, any help would be appreciated. Could the type of oil make a difference?

Yes, it has to be an oil that is compatible with wet clutches. This means that the vast majority of your automotive oils will NOT work.
