Rebuild time has come which overhaul kit should i buy?

Well i've decided to rebuild my own engine. I've been researching it alot and have found what i believe to be the two best rebuild kits at the cheapest prices.

First is this one at rotary resources

http://rotaryresources.com/modules.p...=viewitem&id=7

This is the cheapest master one and looks to be good. I would go for this one but rotor sports racing has one for only $142 more. They say they're new steel alloy apex seals are as much as 7x more durable. If this is true i'd be willing to pay that much more for such good apex seals. Does anyone have any comments, reviews, or experiences with these supposedly new and better apex seals?
