There are three quick things that come to mind. 1 Adjust the governor spring in to give your engine a little more speed on your approach to hills. 2 I would definitely suggest the 28 degree clutch. As I understand it this is the cheapest, best way to get low end torque and pick up for hills and pulling. 3 Find the suggested belt for the 28 degree clutch. The clutch uses a shorter belt that works hand in hand with the pulling clutch. Hope this gives you what you needed.

The shorter belt mentioned is for the earlier ezgo 2 stroke motor (not the 28 degree clutch as posted)..... wherever you buy your parts they will know which one you need OEM # 27077-G02

The belt change is the simplest cheapest upgrade there is ....

Personally, If I just picked up a cart, I would check it out front to back 100% (mostly for safety reasons) and do a basic tune up/maintainance on it, plugs, filters, oil change, grease zerks, check rearend oil and including compression test, blowing out the cooling fins and adjusting the valves just to give a baseline on what you are working with before any upgrades.
You may be supprised after this how well it runs.

Thanks for catching me on that Scottyb. I have seen a few combo. kits here that provided a belt with the 28 degree clutch. I assumed it was somewhat shorter. My mistake.
