I'm not sure there is a kit, as such, but all the parts are widely available. Andrews are very popular as far as cams are concerned, there is even a current thread about the EV27, where you will probably find what you need to know.

I'm not aware of any "kit" cam and lifter set. But when I did the cam in my '93 Ultra, the bearing came with the cam.(Ev-27). I reused the lifters as they only had 1k miles on them. But in an older bike, I'd change them.. Lots of choices out there, try Ebay to get a feel for what there selling for.,,

If you do a little searchin' on the ol' interweb you'll probably find the individual components cheaper than buying a "kit".
I paid about 80 bucks for my vthunder cam (spankin' new), and about $130 for my Johnson lifters (also new). Then a new Torrington cam bearing, some quality gaskets and your set. You can reuse your stock pushrods (I prefer this approach anyway).

Good luck and welcome!

Be careful of those thrown together kits, often times the lifters are junk.

Don`b buy aftermarket lifters unless they are a well known quality brand.

Harley OEM lifters work fine.
