Yes, and I'm not a gambling man...at all, so even taking the risk that there is still the possibility of recent bad product...I'll be going HKS.
Scott, your prices are very good. How about the following...
HKS 272/272
Fidanza Cam Gears (red?) - might get a clear cover for the bling
Walbro 255lph
ARP Headstuds
Fireball...what's the cost of a timing belt...or is that something I can get cheaper online?

Eh, F it, I'm going to skip the gears and save some money. I did a reality check and for my needs/wants I won't be adjusting them much...if ever.

Plus, AMS install price was only a small amount more.

I don't think anyone said you should have one of us tune your car. I think Scott was just trying to save you some money, by giving you a better price on the parts and having one of us install them for you. Then you can just let AMS tune it for you, we would be able to check your tune to make sure you will be safe for the drive there, but i don't see that causing a problem. But at the end of the day you have to do what makes you comfortable, if you want the cams installed here i am sure something can be worked out, otherwise take it down to AMS. But either way let me know when you are going down there, I want to get some dyno numbers for my car.

Speaking of cams, I know when you install JUN cams you have to change out the springs and retainers, is this something that can be done with the head on, or does it require the head off to change the valve springs?
