The HHPI kit appears to be identical to the Clarke kits sold in the UK by Machine Mart, which I have had good results with.

Greetings, thanks Richard the video was very informative.

Is it just me or does anybody else think that american presenters talk too fast? I found the chart to be the most informative section as my little brain could take time to process the presented data

It is important to bear in mind that the inserts can be obtained with different coatings to resist corrosion, etc. Similarly they are available in different lengths. The website address catalogue might help you find a product and then you will need to find an engineering supplier, in the Stockport area we are quite well served by such companies; Kirks at Denton, Brian Popes at Heaton Norris and Dilworth & Morris at New Mills.
