Depends what type/quality of clutch they're fitting, whether that all in price is good or not.

API do a pukka uprated Exedy Organic kit (cover/friction/bearing) rated to 350lb ft. I think the kit costs around £350+ or so, but their mechanics are really proficient at fitting clutches (they did one in less than an hour once!) - so you'll claw some money back on their labour charge in the overall bill...
