I got my head gaskets & head bolts from these guys:

I was very pleased with the items I ordered but can't vouch for these. You'd still have to source the Water Pump but maybe they carry that too.

Don't bother with their website - it was less than useless but their ebay listings are accurate.

OEM! For parts like that oem is the only way to go.

Just one word of warning on the OEM parts; get ready for sticker shock.

I did my timing belt and water pump replacement a couple of years ago and used all stock components. It was EXPENSIVE, compared to some of the Ebay kits, but I figured since the first set lasted over 100k then the second set should last just as long.:thumbup:
