I would not flip the shoes like that, they wear to the drum and flipping them could cause an uneven mating surface between the 2 when the clutch locks up, which is the last thing you want. If you want it to bite better, take a thin cutoff wheel, and cut diagonal or horizonal grooves across the surface of the shoes, say 4 or 5 grooves on each shoe, that will help keep your clutch operating cleaner and more efficiently also, and when you go to clean it, you can literally see the black crud in the grooves, which is basically from the grooves keeping the drum cleaner on the mating surface which helps keep the clutch locking up better for longer in my opinion. We do this on every Fury clutch we have, and every Flame clutch as well. Its an old trick i learned from an old school engine builder who has been using these clutches since they first came out, and it works very well. When i say cut grooves, im talking about 1/8" or so wide and about the same 1/8" deep cut from front to back of the shoes, not lengthways, if that makes sense, they will help the clutch bite better also...think of the way grooves are on a treaded tire, with the sidewalls being the front and back of the clutch...the grooved/treaded tires allow the tire to grip the track alot better than a slick tire does, the same theory applies here with the clutches. Just be sure that after you cut the grooves in the shoes that you debur the edges of the cuts.
