I have seen those on Ebay. I wouldn't buy one.

IMHO, it appears maybe you are on a budget. If that is the case, I wouldn't want to be the guy to test it out. Spend a few extra $$ and get a known brand name clutch. Plenty to choose from by the feedback here.

So is the ls7 clutch really the best way to go? That's what I have been repeatedly reading. Also how many miles of docile driving is a good clutch generally last?

I have seen a number of customer buy the F1 product assuming that it would be equal to other products available only to see issues with capacity, fitment, durability, etc...
You have linked a Mustang kit, is that what vehicle you are trying to fit or do you have an LS based application? Let me know and I will be happy to provide a link to our products for your application. Thanks and let me know if you have any further questions!

My mistake. Yes the ls t56 clutch kit would be very helpful.

Can't speak specifically on the F1 stuff, but haven't seen proven results with them and as far as the LS7 clutch our Level 1 is superior. If you have any questions don't hesitate, you can check with Tick Performance on pricing as they're having a sale currently.

Greyghost, let me know more about your vehicle and I will be happy to point you in the right direction. Make, model, long term torque goals and usage information would be very helpful. Thanks!
