Default RXauto head gasket repair kits

Has anyone here used those kits? I towed my 92 f250 450 miles to get home was just wondering would one of these kits have let me drive the beast home?
any thoughts good or bad. If they worked would bea good thing to take along on long trip.

blowing it out of the exhaust I bought the truck it has aftermarket turbo on it they had blown the clutch right out of it so I imagine it got a little hot and maybe over revved.

not gona seal it up. compression is to high. since it it getting into the compresion chamber. if it was an external leak it might seal it.

possibly has a cracked head too.
