I'm very new to all this, but from what I have found out so far if the governor is removed the engine will rev past the governed speed of 3,600 till it meets the next restriction (air filter, exhaust, choke diameter of the carb and jetting). If you tweek those then you get up to about 5,200 to 5,500 when valve bounce sets in, but this leads to more expensive mods.
I believe peak torque is about 2,500 RPM, so this could be a good target for your clutch to fully engage. I believe engagement RPM can be adjusted with different springs, or by chopping coils off springs.
i was originally intending to use just the clutch, but now looking to use a CVT. Looking at changing the air filter, jetting and exhaust so working my gearing for a theoretical 47 mph top speed and 5,000 rpm to 5,200 rpm.
