The old Long and Borg & Beck designs use several small but strong coil springs, while the diaphragm design uses one large spring, resulting is far fewer parts, reduced cost, lower pedal efforts, and are the reasons they have been the general production clutch of choice for many years. The B&B went away in the '50s/'60s, and Ford ditched the Long in the '70s. Do a little research and I'm sure you will agree the diaphragm is a better clutch choice.
