So pretty much all modern snowmobile engines run in the same directional rotation? And all snowmobiles pretty much have the clutches mounted on the left side (driver's side ) of the sled? And pretty much all sleds have the exhaust to the front and intake on the rear? I could have sworn I saw a KBS F500 with clutches on the right side (passenger side), which brought up my concern, "Are all these secondary clutches universal in directional rotation?" I dont want to go and buy a secondary clutch, only to find out that I bought the "wrong" one. It looks like to me that the primary clutches would be universal.

They "unload" from the ramps when the engine reverses and I think it's only spring pressure that prevents it from upshifting. At the low speeds/power in reverse I don't think it's a big deal.
