3. And what are the best friction plates and how many do I need?

Thanks for your help and apologies for the novice questions. 😃

1. I only know the TC softail.. The 05 up 88 ci clutch spring and ramps is all you need. There is a kit.. It uses 18 degree ramps and aprox a 280 lb spring.. Stock was 21 deg / 300-320

F. REDUCED EFFORT CLUTCH KIT
Kit includes a new clutch spring and inner/outer ramps that
significantly reduce clutch lever effort. Original Equipment on
’06-later Twin Cam-equipped models.
36808-05 $49.95
Fits ’99-’05 Twin Cam-equipped models. Stock on ’06-later
Twin Cam-equipped models. This kit is not for use with
Screamin’ Eagle® Performance Parts.
I would use a stock plate count Barnett Kevlar.

2, I don't know. You could try the burly arm or the amp system.

3.I would use a stock plate count Barnett Kevlar for the twincam. Don't know on the 88 unfortunately.

I'd post the question over in the EVO section, for it.
