Check out the sticky at the top of the forum for a list of UK suppliers.

I used pc-lincs for the tubing, radiator, fittings & waterblock, extreme cooling for the fan & some other non-w/c stuff & the overclocking store for the pump. They were all painless shopping experiences.

We don't have the same range of kit available over here and most suppliers (especially of innovatek stuff) wanted cash up front on "pre-orders" - I say no way to that. I looked at all sorts of reviews etc & came to the conclusion that the MCW462-UH was the best I could get ex-stock in the UK.

My system is:

Eheim 1048 pump
Swiftech MCW462-UH Block
Black Ice Pro
1/2" Silicon Tubing
YS Tech 120mm x 38mm Fan

I used distilled/de-ionised water & anti freeze (75/25% mix)

All went together no problems although your case will bring its own peculiarities to the fitting. I was going to have an internal reservoir but it was too tight a fit so I have gone for an inline system with a fill/bleed hose.

Good luck
