Limiting the scope to 'kits' may lose some of the validity in particular on the side of the US-system champions who heavily prefer hand-picking parts.
However, if it is to be a kit, I think nothing less serious than the recent Swiftech 22600 using the new MCW6000/6002 block should be considered.

Whilst that is partially true, it would seem that most (all?) "currently offered" kits are compromised in one aspect or another, most likely due to the lack of regular sourcing/OEM deals of specific parts.
The above Swiftech kit does look to be the least compromised of the 3/8"+ kits on the market though.
