Default Best place to get LSx MLS Gaskets & Head Bolt Kit? (Stock)

I am looking to buy a set of MLS Head gaskets and GM Head Bolts for an LSx car. I dont have too much to spend and I think the MLS set runs like $60 a pair and the head bolts run about $30-$40. Any sponsors here carry these 2 items? Maybe where did you guys get yours?

Thanks
Mike

I purchased all my gaskets from Scoggin Dickey. The sell entire gasket sets for head and cam swaps. You can save quite a bit of money buying the gasket in a kit and it also insures you will have everything you need for the job. The head installation gasket kit includes the head bolts. Scoggin Dickey has great prices and customer service and are a site sponsor.

Why would you buy a kit if just about every gasket on the LSx cars is reusable? All I need is the gaskets and head bolts. I did some research and the gaskets only cost $38 for the GM Pair and the head blts are about the same price. That fits my budget real nice.

Thanks for the input, I think I found where Im going to go though.

They carry the MLS gasket set/pair for $29.00.

The bolt kit is also in this link.

Just thought you might need a gasket kit but you can buy all the stuff separate as well.
