Default Who's got the best deal on complete cam kits?

Got a buddy who is wanting to do a cam swap but couldn't find a cam kit that I liked.

What im looking for:

MS4 or similar cam
Dual springs & retainers
Pushrods
Timing Set
Oil Pump
Gasket Kit

TICK had the closest thing I could find but seems exclusive to the polluter cam and doesnt include gaskets for $870

Texas Speed had cam, springs, and pushrods for $725

Who else has good deals on a cam kit, also gonna be in the market for some stock replacement headgaskets and headbolts.

thanks!

Texas speed , there prices seem to always be a lil cheaper,if your going to go with a larger cam,some other good parts to look into would be ls7 lifters,katech rod bolts,and a pretty high gear,need to know a lil more info on the car and what your looking for it to do,I will say even the ms4 is a older cam it pulls real hard up top,there is not to many cars that can hang with me in a 30=40 roll,

Between the big names (TR, TSP, etc) it will probably depend on which, if any, has a sale when you order. They are pretty close for what you get. I was deciding between a TSP 228R and a TR224 before christmas last year and I got the TSP partly b/c it was bigger (when you have your choices narrowed to ~2, "always" go bigger) and because they had a sale and I got it for a bit less.

Tax time is coming up so sales will probably begin...
