The King Cobra clutch set up is fine for your Mustang and a good buy, in my opinion.

I have one (20,000 miles, now) and have zero complaints.

The heavier clutch set-ups cost a lot more and are not necessary unless you have big mods and/or race constantly.

When you install whatever clutch you buy, don't overlook the little things like replacing the pilot bearing and the rear main seal too while the transmission is out, as well as the big stuff, like resurfacing or replacing the flywheel. It makes for a better installation and helps avoid problems (like vibration) when you get it back together.
