[DeTomaso] Effort reduction kit

[Julian Kift]

Effort reduction is still effort reduction and although a diaphragm clutch may (not always) be easier to depress than a Borg Warner style, the kit will still result in less effort as it is changing the mechanical leverage at the master cylinder. By the virtue Mike is asking about effort reduction I would expect he is looking for some gain no matter what clutch he currently has.

That may depend on what type of pressure plate you have, three finger or diaphragm.  I recall someone (Jack?) saying you don't need it if you have a diaphragm pressure plate.
