What is a good head gasket to use?

I am doing a top end rebuild and am wondering what is a good head gasket to use? I was thinking about buying this kit on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/85-95-Toyota-2-4L-Engine-Full-Gasket-Set-Cylinder-Head-Bolts-Kit-22R-22RE-22REC-/360625140300?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item53f6eef24c&vxp=mtr
As I have bought lots of parts from them and they have been very good quality? What do you guys suggest? Thanks.

I use their MLS headgasket and that is it, still holding up to 6psi with ARP studs.

go to the dealer and pick up an oem head gasket and some head bolts. mls gaskets sound cool, but the tolerances are higher for them to be any good.

That might not be bad because it comes with the head bolt and every other gasket. I would throw out the headgasket and go with an OEM one though if you're planning on rebuilding everything.

Will this OEM work? I found it on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-22RE-2-4L-Cylinder-Head-Gasket-Genuine-OE-OEM-/271210417445?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f25668d25&vxp=mtr
