Default B16 Gasket kit question

I am looking for a non-budget busting gasket kit for my del Sol Vtec 94. I have quite a few symptoms that point into more than one gasket. After EXTENSIVE searching, I found that my grayish, whitish smoke is due to burning coolant ( watery, sweet smell, no oil, no black-gas ish smell) Head Gasket related. Also, leaking visibly apointable to a faulty O-ring on the cam nearest to the header, which I can SEE the previous owner Siliconed his way thru oil leaks on the O-ring and on the valve cover gasket. I want a partial, or full gasket set. It seems Honda is the best gasket. . . but what is a good deal on them? Here in Puerto Rico Honda is slightly overpriced.. . . is there any other brand, maybe ebay brand? ( Eristic http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW
Anyways. . . not too bank busting. but want to see my options, so I can figure out what to do. Thanks for the help, and sorry for so much typing!

I Found Cheaper than oem (Felpro) on autopartswarehouse.com I beleive they changed their name but if you Google it, it should come up. I got an oem kit for $120 but it was through a friend that has a wholesale account. Good luck

Also found this

http://got-jdm.com/honda-bseri....html

Its a complete set, for $159. I just need to know which brands are actually considerable, because I imagine there must be a million brands I should just steer clear from. Anyways, what I've found is Eristic, Felpro thanks to 4EN, and Yonaka Motorsports on GotJDM? Any input on brands would be greatly appreciated, meanwhile I will search for reviews and post it here. THanks!
