I had a single mass flywheel clutch replacement for my 'farm truck' and it was a LUK. I had good 'luck' with that clutch, good pedal feel and very grippy. Southbends are good for more power though.

I just got done smokin my stock clutch this summer. Pulled my new 36' toy hauler at 13.5k lbs up 6% grade for 10 miles, and she's done. Plan on a sbc con ofe replacement in the next couple months. plan on getting the pre bled hydraulics unit recommended and an updated fork. I haven't driven the truck for several weeks because I don't want to put an inferrior clutch in. Do it right the first time!!! SBC CON OFE!!!

Thanks for your responses.
I have used luk clutches before, they where recommended for older fords to get rid of clutch shuddering. For this truck I do want something very heavy duty though. I think I am going to look into the southbend clutch.
