They can be extrememly fierce and heavy, don't use one unless needed most would say.
It mostly depends on what sort of power you are running ?
The std ford one is pretty good and will take a fair bit of abuse/power.

A group a defo will all day long without any trouble.
It has been used up to 430bhp that I know of personally and it is perfectly ok, and still gives a very very controllable clutch action, albeit bloody heavy(more gym work!!).
